Searching for Facilities

A facilities search returns physical sites — plants, warehouses, and other locations — rather than the companies that operate them. Use it when your question is about where activity happens on the ground and which sites belong to a given organization.

When to use a facilities search

Search for facilities when you want to find the specific sites associated with a company, locate facilities in a particular region, or identify the locations that ship a given product. Because a facility is an entity in its own right, each result is a single site with its own address, activity history, and parent organization.

How it works

Choose Search from the left-hand navigation, then select Facilities from the entity-type menu. Only one field is required to run a search, and fields are additive, so results match all the criteria you set.

Facilities search form with Company Name, HS Codes, Operating Location, Belongs to Organization ID, Belongs to Organization Name, and Representative ID fields

Common attributes include:

  • Company Name — the company associated with the facility
  • HS Codes — the goods classification associated with activity at the site
  • Operating Location — where the facility is located
  • Belongs to Organization ID and Belongs to Organization Name — the parent organization the facility belongs to
  • Representative ID — an identifier lookup for the facility

Use Add or remove fields to expand the attribute set with additional facility details.

Outputs and interpretation

Results appear as a grid of facilities. Each row is one site, with columns such as Company Canon Name, Address, Number of Shipments, Country, Last Known Activity, and First Known Activity.

From here you can refine, filter, adjust columns, and export the grid the same way you would for any search. See Refining Search Results, Filtering Search Results, and Exporting Data.
