Capabilities

Everything you need from Tradewheel — nothing you don't

Our Tradewheel scraper handles the B2B marketplace layers: product catalogues, supplier credentials, and RFQ boards — with JavaScript rendering and anti-bot circumvention built in.

Product Catalogue Extraction

Title, FOB price ranges, Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ), specifications, and product images scraped across industrial categories.

Supplier Intelligence

Extract company names, business types, employee counts, annual revenue brackets, and response rates from supplier profile pages.

Buyer RFQ Sourcing

Monitor active Requests for Quotation (RFQs), capturing required quantities, destination countries, and expiry dates.

Certification Tracking

Capture ISO, CE, and other compliance certifications listed by suppliers, including issuing authorities and verification status.

Deep Category Traversal

Navigate complex B2B taxonomies from top-level industries down to specific component sub-categories.

Origin & Destination Mapping

Track global trade flows by capturing supplier origin countries and buyer destination requirements.

Search Rank Monitoring

Track organic and sponsored positions for specific B2B keywords across the Tradewheel search engine.

Contact Details Extraction

Extract publicly listed phone numbers, email addresses, and contact persons where available on supplier storefronts.

Scheduled Change Detection

Run continuous pipelines at daily or weekly cadences with change-detection diffing to monitor supplier updates.

Under the hood

How our Tradewheel pipeline handles the hard parts

B2B directories deploy strict rate limits. Here is how we stay resilient — and why teams choose managed infrastructure over DIY.

Residential proxy rotation

B2B directories aggressively block datacenter IPs. Our crawlers use residential ISP proxies with realistic browser fingerprints and randomised request timing to bypass perimeter defences.

Dynamic content
Playwright interaction for reveals

Many contact details and specific pricing tiers require user interaction to reveal. We run full Playwright browser sessions to trigger JavaScript events and capture hidden DOM elements.

Taxonomy complexity
Recursive category traversal

Tradewheel features thousands of nested industrial categories. Our crawlers recursively map the taxonomy tree to ensure 100% coverage without missing obscure sub-categories.

Data normalisation
Regex and structured parsing

FOB prices and MOQs are often entered as free text by suppliers. We apply strict regex and parsing logic to normalise '100 Pieces', '100 PCS', and '100 Units' into structured numeric fields.

Change detection
Only re-scrape what's changed

For large supplier catalogues, we maintain a hash index of last-seen values per field. Subsequent runs only push diffs, reducing downstream processing load.

Applications

Who uses Tradewheel data — and how

Teams across industries use tradewheel.com data to build competitive products and smarter operations.

01
Supplier Sourcing & Procurement

Procurement teams build massive supplier databases to identify alternative manufacturing partners and negotiate better terms.

02
B2B Market Research

Analysts track industrial category growth, origin country dominance, and supplier density to identify global trade trends.

03
Competitor Price Benchmarking

Manufacturers monitor wholesale FOB prices and MOQs of competing suppliers to optimise their own global pricing strategy.

04
Trade Finance & Due Diligence

Financial institutions verify supplier operational history, employee counts, and certifications for risk assessment.

05
Lead Generation for B2B Services

Logistics, freight forwarding, and inspection companies extract supplier contact details to pitch relevant B2B services.

06
Supply Chain Mapping

Consultancies map product origins and supplier locations to model supply chain resilience and identify geographic bottlenecks.

Why DataFlirt

"Tradewheel holds critical cross-border trade signals and wholesale pricing data — but extracting it requires navigating aggressive rate limits and complex taxonomies."

Most teams underestimate the investment required: reliable B2B directory scraping requires residential proxies, full JavaScript rendering for contact reveals, CAPTCHA handling, and daily selector maintenance. DataFlirt absorbs that complexity so your engineers can focus on the analysis — not the infrastructure.

Infrastructure

Infrastructure powering the Tradewheel pipeline

Open-source tooling on proven cloud infra — no vendor lock-in, full observability.

ScrapyPlaywrightPython 3.12RedisPostgreSQLApache AirflowAWS LambdaS3CloudWatch2CaptchaCapSolverResidential ProxiesDockerKubernetesGrafanaPrometheus
Scrapy + Playwright Stack

Scrapy handles crawl orchestration, deduplication, and retry logic. Playwright handles JavaScript rendering, cookie sessions, and interaction flows. Combined via scrapy-playwright middleware.

Residential Proxy Infrastructure

We maintain pools of residential ISP proxies across global regions. Rotation happens per-request with sticky sessions where required. IP score monitoring prevents blacklisted pool contamination.

Cloud-Native Orchestration

Pipelines run on AWS Lambda (burst) and ECS (sustained). Airflow handles scheduling, dependency management, and SLA alerting. All state stored in managed Postgres.

Common questions.

About tradewheel.com scraping, legality, and pipeline operations.

Ask us directly →
Is scraping Tradewheel legal?

Scraping publicly available information from Tradewheel is generally permissible. DataFlirt targets only public, non-authenticated product, pricing, and supplier profile data. We do not extract personal data beyond publicly listed business contacts, circumvent authentication walls, or violate GDPR. Clients should consult legal counsel for specific use cases.

How do you handle rate limits on B2B directories?

We use residential ISP proxies, full Playwright browser sessions with realistic fingerprints, and request timing modelled on human behaviour. We monitor for 403/CAPTCHA rate spikes in real time and trigger pool rotation automatically.

Can you extract hidden contact details?

Yes. If an email or phone number requires a click to reveal but is accessible without a logged-in account, our Playwright renderers trigger the necessary JavaScript events to expose and extract the data.

How do you handle inconsistent MOQ and pricing formats?

B2B suppliers often input data inconsistently. We run post-extraction normalisation pipelines using regex and structured parsing to convert strings like '100-200 PCS' into distinct integer minimum/maximum fields and standard unit strings.

How fresh is the data?

Full category refreshes at weekly or monthly cadence complete within a 12-24 hour window depending on category depth. We can configure daily runs for specific high-priority supplier lists.

Can I request a sample dataset before committing?

Absolutely. We provide a sample run of up to 500 products or 50 supplier profiles as part of the pre-engagement scoping process — so you can validate schema fit, field completeness, and data quality before signing any contract.
