Find your next customers on a clean list
We list the companies in your target market that match your criteria, with their contact details, so your sales team can start working the list straight away. We can also find companies similar to one of your existing customers, or map the competitors in the same field.
A filtered list instead of a trade-fair notebook
When looking for new customers in Europe, most exporters go down the same routes: business cards collected at trade fairs, companies found at random online, names passed on by intermediaries. What these methods have in common is that none of them gives you a picture of the whole market.
A data list starts from a defined set instead. Once the country, activity code, region and company size are set, every company that meets those criteria comes into view. From the outset you can see how many companies you are dealing with, which cities they are concentrated in and how they break down by size. Or you start from a customer who works well for you, and the companies that resemble it are brought together in one list.
Three kinds of list
Target market list
Companies that match your ideal customer profile, filtered by country, activity code (NACE), region and size. A real, workable list rather than a loose collection of names.
Look-alike list
We take one of your existing customers as the reference: you give us its name, registration number or website, and we list companies that resemble it in field, size and region. The way to find more customers like the ones that work well for you.
Competitor list
You give us a company name, registration number or website; we list similar companies active in the same field, so you can see exactly who is in the market.
What do we start from?
We build the list from a reference company or from criteria. The clearer the starting point, the easier the list is for your sales team to work with.
Reference company
A company name, registration or VAT number, or website. Look-alike and competitor lists start from this reference.
Activity code (NACE)
Defines what the customer does, for example wholesale of furniture or road freight transport. The same code system is used across Europe.
Country and region
One or more European countries in our target area, or specific cities and regions within a country.
Size and volume
A range of employees, for example companies with 10 to 50 staff, and how many companies you want to start with.
A list you can use, with the numbers behind it
Send us your criteria
A reference company or criteria: country, activity code, region, company size and how many records you want.
We confirm volume and price
You hear how many companies match your criteria and what the list costs. Nothing proceeds without your approval.
We deliver the list
A clean Excel file with company and contact details, plus the breakdown by region and size.
If 3,000 companies match your criteria, we deliver the first 500; you can request the rest in batches of 500 whenever you are ready for them.

For your target market in Europe
Lists are produced for all European countries in our target area. You can work with a single country or with a target market that spans several.
Lists are supplied for use in line with applicable data protection rules (KVKK and the GDPR). How you use the list, which companies you contact and which channel you choose is your decision.
Getting to know the customer
A list shows you who is in the market. It contains no information on these companies' financial position, payment behaviour or credit standing.
Once talks progress to the order stage, and especially if you will be selling on open account, on deferred payment terms, the second half of the picture comes into play: the customer's independent risk report, trade limit, score, payment behaviour and adverse records. For customers you go on working with, customer monitoring follows developments such as a drop in score, a restructuring filing or a company change for 12 months.
The list finds the new customer; the report and monitoring show where that customer stands today and how that changes. At every stage, the decision is yours.
Frequently asked questions
In what format is the list delivered?
As an Excel file with company and contact details that you can work with straight away, together with a breakdown by region and company size.
Which countries can you produce lists for?
All European countries in our target area. We can work with a single country, several countries or specific regions within a country.
How many companies can I have on a list?
We first tell you how many companies match your criteria. Delivery is in batches of 500, and you can request the rest whenever you are ready.
Can I see the financial strength of the companies on the list?
No, a data list contains no financial information. For a specific customer's limit, score and payment behaviour, an independent company risk report is obtained separately.
Can you find companies similar to one of my existing customers?
Yes. You give us your customer's company name, registration number or website, and we list companies that resemble it in field, size and region. This is known as the look-alike method.
What do I need to provide for a competitor list?
A company name, registration number or website is enough. We list similar companies active in the same field.
Can I use the list for e-mail campaigns?
Lists are supplied for use in line with data protection rules (KVKK and the GDPR). Which channels may be used for commercial communication, and on what conditions, is governed by those rules; responsibility for how the list is used lies with the company using it.
