Apify ActorExhibitorPublic data feed
German Trade Fair Exhibitor Monitor
Public German trade fair exhibitor directories as company rows.
The Actor reads public Messe Düsseldorf/VIS-compatible exhibitor directories, normalizes company profiles and returns structured rows for research, sourcing, CRM preparation and sales planning.
Context
Apify turns this into a repeatable data run.
Instead of opening exhibitor lists manually in a browser, users run an Actor with events, countries, cities or keywords. The result is a dataset of company rows that can be exported or processed through the API.
SourcesMEDICA, boot, A+A, ProWein, K, interpack, wire, Tube, drupa and other public VIS directories
Price0.002 USD per emitted exhibitor row
BoundaryCompany-level research, not a contact scraper or outreach automation tool
Workflow
How users actually use the tool.
Review company rows
The dataset includes company name, event, country, city, hall/stand, website, profile URL and lead reason where publicly available.
Use the list downstream
Results can move into CSV, Sheets, Airtable, CRM or internal research processes. The public profile URL remains available for checking.
Input
A good first run is event-specific.
For a first check, a focused event and keyword run is better than a broad export. It makes result quality easier to judge.

}Output
The result is a company feed from fair sources.
The Actor does not provide private contact data. It creates clean company rows and points back to the public exhibitor profile or website.
Company
Company name, event, country, city and hall/stand information where available.
Source
Public profile URL, source directory URL, source name and detectedAt.
Context
Keyword, country or city matches, lead reason and rank score.
Workflow
CSV/API data for research, segmentation, sourcing, CRM preparation or fair planning.
Use cases
Where the Actor is practically useful.
Shortlist before a trade fair
Teams can collect relevant companies before an event, segment them and review profiles later.
Map market segments
Exhibitor data helps identify manufacturers, suppliers, distributors or partner candidates in a segment.
Repeatable event research
Instead of manually opening every directory, teams get repeatable runs with source and SUMMARY data.
Proof
Verified on real Apify runs.
The proof shows not only that the Actor runs, but also that the event expansion and custom eventUrls work as intended.

Limits
What the Actor deliberately does not do.
The boundary is intentional. This is a research and data-structuring tool, not an aggressive lead scraper.
Does the Actor collect personal emails or phone numbers?
No. The Actor is company-level and uses public exhibitor profiles. It does not collect private contact details and does not automate outreach.
Do arbitrary trade fair websites work?
No. eventUrls only work for compatible public Messe Düsseldorf/VIS directories.
Can this replace purchased contact lists?
No. The Actor helps find and segment companies. The public profile or company website should be checked before contact.
