A global industrial view
Open Global Supply Chains beside Infrastructure. Choose from 16 industry and energy categories, including cars, components, aircraft, bicycles, electronics, semiconductors, medical products, clothing and consumer goods. Search facilities and companies, filter source-stated lifecycle and country, and inspect records in the map or paged tables.
The launch snapshot contains 67,799 manufacturing, supplier, distribution and related reference records, plus 183,404 Global Energy Monitor power unit/phase records. Counts are source records: sites, phases and expansions can overlap. Regional factory coverage is incomplete, and many mapped workshops lack product or lifecycle detail.
Follow evidence-backed connections
The trade view aggregates 19,594,494 positive HS2022 export source rows from Harvard Growth Lab’s 2022–2024 bilateral dataset into 665 manufactured-product headings. Country trade is shown as reconciled current-US-dollar estimates, with product and year controls and access to every retained pair through the table. It is not individual shipment tracking.
Dated primary-source examples trace component and distribution relationships, including BMW electric drives, Toyota engines, Airbus wings and LEGO’s Vietnam distribution network. Nike’s September 2026 supplier disclosures retain brand relationships and coordinate discrepancies. Factory links, country-market relationships and nearby transport have distinct meanings.
Production, projects and transport context
Operating, planned and construction records retain their source status and date. World Bank manufacturing indicators, OICA vehicle output and EIA electricity capacity retain their original measures, years, missing values and qualifications. Installed MW capacity is not electricity output.
Port and airport references and generalized railway geography support clearly labelled proximity context. Distance to a transport reference does not establish access, cargo service, a supplier relationship or a shipping route. Primary city/country anchors are explicitly approximate.
Know the coverage
The Coverage & sources view provides provenance, collection gaps, attribution and downloads. Source editions range from annual trade and production statistics to dated factory disclosures. Publisher headline metadata refreshes daily, retaining original clocks when a source is unavailable. Neither complete global bills of materials nor live movements of every business and good are claimed.
