Find Customers

Rank US importers (consignees) by how many distinct import shipments in our bill-of-lading data match your product phrase (commas or OR separate alternatives; use * for prefix wildcards, e.g. skateboard*), or your value in the HS code field (dots allowed, e.g. 9906.07 for sub-headings). Use + for extra keyword fields. Pick a year and either a single month or full year (same idea as US ports analytics).

Shipments are distinct bill-of-lading numbers per importer. Total shipments is all imports in the period; the keyword column is matches only; % focus is matches divided by total. Up to 200 importers. Results default to highest % focus first. Click column headers to re-sort. Use + to add up to 10 separate phrases (combined with OR), or use commas, semicolons, or OR in one field (up to 30 terms) — always any match (OR), never all (AND). Product keywords: suffix * matches any ending (e.g. skateboard* → skateboards, skateboard deck, …). HS codes: dots OK (9906.07 matches that sub-heading and longer codes starting with it). HS code: e.g. 4201, 9508, 6307 finds shipments whose HS contains any of those fragments. Product description: each term is an exact phrase, same as Top exporters by product.

How to run your own search

keywords= or keyword= — your product phrase (spaces as + or %20)
year= — required, e.g. 2024 or 2025
match=product_desc (default) or hs_code
month=full optional (defaults to full year when year is set)
limit= optional, max 200
include_profiles=1 — returns full company profiles in the same response (best for bulk export)

Never use template placeholders like {company} in URLs. The JSON request object shows what the server received.
