What this is — and what it honestly is not
This page shows the named logistics chain behind each product flow: the freight forwarders and transport-document issuers who file the paperwork, and the carriers operating the legs. That is who a cold-outreach campaign realistically targets first. It does not name the overseas buyer: Chile pseudonymizes importer identities in its open registers (a NUM_UNICO_IMPORTADOR code replaces the company name), so any service promising “verified buyer names” from this source is inferring — or inventing. We prefer showing you exactly what the government filed.

Frequently asked questions
Who ships lithium carbonate from Chile?
The ranked table on this page lists the transport-document issuers by shipment count, straight from the official register.
Are these the foreign buyers themselves?
Foreign buyer identities are pseudonymized in Chile's official open data (NUM_UNICO_IMPORTADOR), so no honest tool can name them from this source. We publish the real, named supply-chain companies instead — forwarders, carriers and document issuers.
Can I reuse this data?
Yes — the underlying dataset is licensed ODC-BY (attribution), published by Chile's Servicio Nacional de Aduanas on datos.gob.cl.
