What it does
Search company names and get one row per US importer or overseas supplier, with shipment counts and last shipment dates. Ask for profiles to add trading partners, HS codes, product descriptions, and recent shipments, up to 20 a run.
All of the work runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that starts the actor run, waits for it, and hands back the dataset rows.
Quick start
You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.
Add this to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor, or any MCP client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"mamba-us-import-records-buyer-finder": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@mambalabsdev/mcp-us-import-records-buyer-finder"
],
"env": {
"APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"
}
}
}
}
Restart the client. The find_us_importers tool appears.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18 or newer.
- An Apify API token from console.apify.com/account/integrations, set as
APIFY_TOKEN. The server lists its tool without a token; a call needs one.
Example prompts
- "Find US importers with pickleball in their name that shipped this year."
- "Who supplies Pickleball Central, and from which countries?"
- "Which overseas suppliers named Zhejiang ship the most to the US?"
Tool
find_us_importers. One tool. Example arguments:
{
"search": [
"pickleball"
],
"max_results": 20
}
Inputs
Every buyer facing input of the actor. Omitted inputs take the actor's own defaults.
| Input | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
search |
array | no | Company name words, for example pickleball or walmart. The site matches company names, not what a company imports. Up to 50 terms. |
company_urls |
array | no | ImportYeti company or supplier links to read in full, up to 20 a run. |
mode |
string | no | importers: US companies importing. suppliers: overseas companies shipping to the US. both: either. |
date_from |
string | no | Optional, YYYY-MM-DD. Drops companies whose last shipment is older. |
min_shipments |
number | no | Optional. Drops companies with fewer shipments in total. |
max_results |
number | no | Up to 1000. Default 100. The site served about 140 rows per term in testing, so a broad term can stop sooner. |
include_profiles |
boolean | no | true adds trading partners, their countries, HS codes, product descriptions, and recent shipments to the first rows, up to Maximum profiles. Priced as a profile row. |
max_profiles |
number | no | Up to 20, because the site limits page views per address and this actor stops there. Each profile adds about 7 seconds. |
max_charge_usd |
string | no | Optional. The run stops before a charge that would pass this amount. Summary rows are always returned. |
