I would recommend this to anyone in the export/import business. > > **Cons**: Commodity market price trend insights would be of great value, helping us plan better, manage risks, and make more informed decisions. > > I came looking for importer data, and found much more value than I expected. Supplier data helped map competitor landscape, relationships, volume, etc. The best part was the ability to seamlessly export the data. Dave was kind to give me a 7-day free trial to take the product for a spin. ----- ### "Was able to find a supply source to workaround tariff headaches\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jonathan** | *13 October 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It provides enough relevent info to gain highly useful insight about supplier networks, MOQ estimates, who major players are in a field based on inflow/outflow, who their primary retail customers are, etc. It also helped my realize tactics used by companies to "mask" their primary source from competitors. > > **Cons**: Did not always incorporate contact details in profiles, or contact detail relevence was outdated, might be a good idea to set up bots to auto verify info by sending mock quote requests to the numbers/emails or something. > > With tariff schedules in full swing and no sign of calming down, I thought it would be a good idea to get proactive in alternative supply sourcing while I still have another year of material surplus to go on. The plan was to circumvent wholesalers in the US and go direct to source, and boy I learned a few things along the way. Once I was able to track wholesale inflows for the specific material categories I required (super easy with the visual flow breakdowns in ImportYeti) I grabbed contact info from the import manifest details on a few listings that had WhatsApp numbers. This led me to discover that A LOT of the large US wholesalers actually create front companies within the countries where their primary supplier is to mask the source and act as a gatekeeper for people attempting to circumvent them\! With the help of Meta's Llama and X's Grok however, I was able to scrape Instagram and X posts to match WhatsApp numbers to accounts, and discovered one linked on South American Instagram servers. After digging into the company, it turns out they are the 2nd largest exporter of the product I was looking for in that country, and they actually had a low enough MOQ that made it feesible for a sole-prop like me to actually order. I was pretty skeptical initially demoing the service that it could be of use to such a tiny one-man business like mine, but through Dave's (founder of ImportYeti) generous offer to let me try out full-featured access for a week, but with a little creative engineering on my part it will likely turn out to cut my future supply costs down by about 1/3rd\! I can't imagine the savings a SMB could get utilizing the data running trend analysis, incorporating LLMs in to the API, etc. Dave is also extremely responsive, helpful, and encouraging...how many businesses do you work with where the owner actually replies to you without boilerplate? Highly recommended\! ----- ### "ImportYeti is a hidden gem" — 5.0/5 > **Keyna** | *4 November 2025* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to find vendors. No cost. No ads. No gimmicks. This gives retailers an opportunity to improve their profit margins by locating vendors specific to their business. > > **Cons**: It’s not well known, a hidden gem. Also wish there were more hyperlinks to vendors that would make it easier to connect. > > Pleasantly pleased with the results of my searches. The personalized customer support experience is impressive as you are speaking to real people. ----- ### "ImportYeti" — 5.0/5 > **Yoryi** | *24 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to find suppliers, track imports, and research competitors. It saves time and helps me find real business opportunities faster. > > **Cons**: Some company data can be limited, and more detailed information often requires extra digging outside the platform. > > ImportYeti has been a great tool for helping me understand supply chains and identify the right freight forwarders, importers, and business opportunities. What stands out most is that the \[sensitive content hidden\] and team are involved every step of the way—they’re not just running a platform, they actually care about the people using it. Whenever I had questions or needed guidance, they were responsive, helpful, and made the process feel personal instead of automated. You can tell they’ve built a real community around the business, not just a service. For anyone in logistics, freight brokerage, importing, or even government contracting looking for supplier insights, ImportYeti is a powerful resource. Highly recommend. ----- ### "Amazing tool for Supply Datas" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *23 March 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I was introduced to use ImportYeti after spending a lot of time from different trade and data websites to search the trading information. Many exporter/importer mentioned ImportYeti in different social medias. I love it once i found it. The data is easy to check. Security is not an issue and the database was consistently updated. It’s a great tool\! > > **Cons**: I am satisfied with it so far. It would be great to have multiple languages in different region or countries. > > I am satisfied with it so far. Using it on daily basic to search all kinds of data. All good so far\! ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/397435/importyeti?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/397435/importyeti) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
