What Nordicnet does

Nordicnet is a Nordic B2B search engine and online marketplace designed to help business purchasers find and compare suppliers across Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway, and the Faroe Islands. The platform aggregates a database of 188,477 Nordic suppliers, organized across six searchable indexes (Product Register, Company Register, Trademark Register, Agency Register, Fairs, and Trade Associations), enabling filtering by product, service, company name, agent, trademark, geography, and company type. Detailed company profiles include products, services, agencies, brands, decision-maker contacts, and closing financial information with ratios derived from annual reports. The platform is operated by CMPartner AB, a subsidiary of Nordic Market Data AB headquartered in Alvik, Stockholm, which has delivered Nordic company information since 1967.

The platform operates a freemium monetization model. Free users can browse basic company information and search the indexes, while paid annual subscriptions unlock detailed data. Access Basic is priced at 790 €/year and provides full company information, decision-makers, and financial ratios without export. Access Advanced is priced at 1,790 €/year and adds 10,000 export points for Excel and Word output. The company also generates revenue from advertising placements for businesses seeking Nordic market exposure. Go-to-market is product-led and self-service, with customers purchasing directly through the website on annual billing cycles and discovery primarily driven by organic SEO; the platform reports no mobile app, no public API, and no third-party developer integrations.

The company serves a horizontal B2B buyer base, primarily procurement professionals and SMBs seeking supplier intelligence, alongside businesses paying for advertising exposure. The operation is small — approximately 20 employees at CMPartner AB, with consolidated turnover of approximately MSEK 30 (~USD 2.8-3M) — and the parent reports no active M&A, funding rounds, or recent leadership changes. Strategic partnerships with Creditsafe (credit data), Eniro (directory), MyNewsdesk (press distribution), SuperOffice (CRM), and several other Nordic business service providers extend the data ecosystem and distribution surface.

Direct peers

• Eniro: Major Nordic local search and directory business with company listings across Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark. Directly comparable as a Nordic company directory; notably listed as a strategic directory partner of Nordicnet, indicating overlap in audience and use cases.
• Europages: European B2B marketplace and directory focused on supplier discovery across Europe, with significant Nordic coverage. Closely comparable in product (supplier search, company profiles, freemium + paid tiers) and in serving B2B purchasers seeking cross-border suppliers.
• Allabolag (Proff.se / Proff.no / Proff.dk): Nordic business information services operated under the Proff brand (now part of Dun & Bradstreet's Bisnode legacy) offering free and paid company data across Sweden, Norway and Denmark. Direct substitute for Nordicnet's free and paid company lookup use cases in the same geographies.
• Kompass International: Global B2B directory and marketplace operating across many countries including the Nordics. Directly comparable as a paid B2B company database with searchable supplier profiles, financial data and subscription tiers; competes head-to-head with Nordicnet for Nordic supplier discovery.

Broad incumbents

• Alibaba.com: The world's largest global B2B marketplace connecting buyers and suppliers. Comparable as a B2B generalist marketplace, though operating at vastly greater scale and competing more on price/global reach than on Nordic-specific data depth.
• ThomasNet: Long-established North American B2B industrial directory serving purchasers and suppliers with company profiles, product catalogs and supplier sourcing. Comparable business model and use case (B2B supplier search with paid tiers), though operating in a different geography.
• Dun & Bradstreet: Global leader in business data and credit information, with strong Nordic presence through acquired Bisnode assets. Comparable as a paid B2B company/credit information provider at significantly larger scale and broader geographic footprint than Nordicnet.

Regional players

• Hitta.se: Leading Swedish company and person lookup directory with significant Nordic overlap. Comparable as a Nordic company search portal serving both consumer and B2B users, though primarily Sweden-centric and operating a partly free model that competes with Nordicnet's free tier.

Others

• Creditsafe: Global business credit reports and company data provider with significant Nordic coverage. Comparable in providing company/financial data for B2B buyers; listed as a collaboration partner of Nordicnet and a potential substitute or upstream data supplier.
• Largestcompanies.com: Sister marketplace platform owned by Nordic Market Data AB (the same parent that owns Nordicnet). Directly comparable as a Nordic/European B2B company directory under common ownership, useful for evaluating cross-platform bundling opportunities.
