Messe Berlin Exhibitor List Scraper

Overview

A web scraper for extracting structured exhibitor data from trade show directories on Messe Berlin event websites. It targets pages with a consistent HTML structure, specifically URLs containing /showfloor/organizations. Use it for lead generation, market research, or competitive analysis.

Key Features

• Data Extraction: Scrapes company names, details, websites, social media links, product categories, and contact information.
• Structured Targeting: Works with Messe Berlin event sites sharing a common page layout.
• Pay-Per-Event Pricing: Costs are based on a small start fee plus a per-exhibitor charge.
• URL Testing: If unsure about compatibility, test your URL for free using the Exhibitor List Scrapers Router & URL Tester.

How to Use

1. Navigate to the actor's Input tab on Apify.
2. In the startUrls field, enter the full URL of the exhibitor list page (e.g., https://online.fruitlogistica.com/showfloor/organizations).
   • Important: Provide the direct exhibitor directory URL. The scraper does not support category-filtered pages or event homepages.
3. Configure any desired advanced options (like max results) or run with defaults.
4. Start the actor. It will crawl the list and extract all exhibitor profiles.

Input/Output

Input:
The primary required input is the startUrls array containing one or more valid exhibitor list URLs. Example:

{
  "startUrls": ["https://plus.cms-berlin.de/showfloor/organizations"]
}

Output:
The actor outputs a dataset of items, where each item represents one exhibitor. Typical fields include:
* companyName
* website
* socialLinks (LinkedIn, Twitter, etc.)
* categories
* description
* contactPersons
* address
* country

Data is available in JSON, CSV, Excel, and other formats via the Apify platform.

A full list is maintained on GitHub. Other Messe Berlin events with the same page structure are likely compatible.
