🌿 AgriTech B2B Export Intelligence — Buyer Discovery

Find international B2B buyers for agricultural commodities across global trade directories. Built for exporters of essential oils, spices, rice, organic products, and other agricultural goods.

What does this actor do?

This actor scrapes buying leads and supplier listings from international B2B trade platforms to help agricultural exporters find real buyers worldwide.

It searches each platform per commodity, extracts buyer requests, finds contact details (email / phone / WhatsApp), filters by country / quantity / date, removes duplicates across runs, scores every lead 0–100, and delivers a clean dataset sorted best-first.

Platforms

🛒 Buying Leads (RFQs) are your hot prospects — real buyers looking for your product. 🏭 Supplier Listings are market intelligence — who else sells, at what price, from where. You choose which platforms to run via the platforms input.

✨ Key features

• Lead scoring (0–100) — every lead is ranked by buying intent, contact availability, quantity, freshness and commodity fit, so the best prospects are at the top.
• Contact extraction — pulls email / phone / WhatsApp from listings. Enable Enrich contacts to open each detail page for deeper extraction.
• Only-new-leads mode — remembers leads across runs. Schedule a daily run and receive only fresh prospects — perfect for an ongoing lead feed.
• Smart filters — by buyer country (with alias matching: USA/US/America, UAE/Dubai…), minimum order quantity (auto-normalized to kg), and lead age.
• Budget cap — maxResults stops the run before compute costs run away.
• Robust anti-bot — rotating browser fingerprints + session pool, automatic challenge handling, and session retirement on blocks.

Who is this for?

Essential-oil distillers, spice exporters, rice/grain traders, organic-product exporters, agricultural commodity traders, export consultants, and Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) looking for direct international buyers.

⚠️ Before you sell it — validate the scrapers

The target sites (Alibaba, IndiaMART, TradeIndia) use dynamic class names and aggressive anti-bot protection, so CSS selectors drift over time. Before listing this on Apify Store:

1. Run once with debugMode: true and a single commodity.
2. Open the Key-Value Store and inspect the saved DEBUG_* HTML for each platform.
3. Confirm real leads appear in the Dataset (not nav/footer noise).
4. Adjust the selectors in the relevant src/platforms/*.js file if a site has changed its markup.

Scraping these platforms may be subject to their Terms of Service, and contact data may be personal data under GDPR/PDPA — use responsibly and for legitimate B2B outreach only.
