US Import Records Buyer Finder MCP Server

Glama score MCP Registry npm version npm downloads license mcpservers.org

An MCP server for the Mamba Labs US Import Records Buyer Finder actor on Apify. Find US importers and their overseas suppliers from customs records.

What's Inside

What it does

Search company names and get one row per US importer or overseas supplier, with shipment counts and last shipment dates. Ask for profiles to add trading partners, HS codes, product descriptions, and recent shipments, up to 20 a run.

All of the work runs on Apify. This package is a thin client that starts the actor run, waits for it, and hands back the dataset rows.

Quick start

You need Node.js 18 or newer and an Apify account with an API token.

Add this to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor, or any MCP client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mamba-us-import-records-buyer-finder": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@mambalabsdev/mcp-us-import-records-buyer-finder"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "your-apify-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart the client. The find_us_importers tool appears.
