Hi, I am Adeel. I work on data extraction and structuring projects regularly, including scraping directories and normalizing the results into clean spreadsheets. My team builds the tools around this kind of work, so duplicates get caught programmatically rather than missed by eye. I would set up the scrape by city and category as you release them, validate each business against the source before it goes in the file, and match your CSV structure exactly. Happy to do the first city or category free, a small sample batch, so you can check the format and accuracy before committing further. Can you share the sample CSV and one city or category now so I can start on that sample?

Hi there, I went through your project description and understand you need accurate business data collected from public online sources across multiple cities and categories, then delivered in a clean, normalized structure matching your provided CSV format exactly. I’ll use Python with requests, BeautifulSoup, Scrapy, or Playwright depending on the source structure and access requirements. Each business record will be collected according to your specified fields, with city and category criteria applied consistently. I’ll implement deduplication using business names, addresses, phone numbers, websites, and other available identifiers to ensure the final dataset contains genuine unique businesses. Before delivery, I’ll validate records for completeness, normalize names and contact fields, remove obvious duplicates, and flag uncertain or incomplete entries rather than making assumptions. The final CSV or Excel file will follow your supplied column names and ordering precisely so it can be used immediately in your existing workflow. To scope your project clearly, I would like to ask whether the business directories and target cities/categories will be provided, or should I identify the most suitable public sources for each category? A detailed project blueprint will be shared within 24–48 hours after the project is awarded, outlining the collection, validation, deduplication, and delivery process. Kind Regards, Imran Ali
