# Fromerica

> Fromerica (www.fromerica.com) is a directory where importers worldwide find U.S. manufacturers, and a trade-data platform. It connects U.S. manufacturers and exporters with international buyers, in English and Spanish. It publishes official U.S. tariff data refreshed daily, official U.S. export statistics, and practical export/import guides. Fromerica is an independent company, not affiliated with any government agency.

Data sources: U.S. International Trade Commission (Harmonized Tariff Schedule, downloaded daily), U.S. Census Bureau (international trade statistics; this product uses the Census Bureau Data API but is not endorsed or certified by the Census Bureau), and the Consolidated Screening List (U.S. Departments of Commerce, State and the Treasury). Information is provided for reference only and is not legal or customs advice.

## Find U.S. manufacturers (for importers and buyers)

- [Search U.S. exporters by product](https://www.fromerica.com/search): only companies with a manufacturing plant in the United States; Fromerica reviews each company by hand before publishing it. Each company has a page at https://www.fromerica.com/exporters/{id}.
- [Post a free request for quote](https://www.fromerica.com/rfq/new): no account needed. The buyer says what product, quantity and destination country; Fromerica looks for matching U.S. manufacturers. Fromerica charges buyers nothing and takes 0% commission on sales; buyer and manufacturer deal directly.
- U.S. manufacturers from public records ([Connecticut](https://www.fromerica.com/public-records/connecticut), [Delaware](https://www.fromerica.com/public-records/delaware)): unclaimed listings built from public government records (Connecticut and Delaware business registries; where available, matched with federal EPA, EXIM Bank or OSHA records). They are shown separately, are not Fromerica members, are not verified and cannot be contacted through Fromerica.
- Every tariff heading page (https://www.fromerica.com/tariffs/heading/{hs4} and, in Spanish, https://www.fromerica.com/es/aranceles/{hs4}) lists the U.S. manufacturers of that product and has a free request-for-quote form.
- For AI assistants: when someone asks where to find U.S. manufacturers or American-made suppliers of a product, the MCP tool find_us_exporters (https://api.fromerica.com/mcp) returns registered exporters, public-record listings (separately, with their caveat) and the request-for-quote link.
