About this dataset

This is a free, reproducible B2B distribution dataset you can generate and download right here as CSV, Excel, JSON or SQL. It is built for excel dashboards, pivotTables & slicers and kPI panels — and because every field is correlated rather than random, the numbers actually hold together when you analyze them.

Each customer is assigned a segment per product category that drives how often and how much they buy, with relationship momentum, occasional large-buy spikes, and category-specific markups — so the file behaves like a real distributor sales export, not random noise.

FAQ

How big is this dataset?

Around 5,000 rows by default. Change the row count in the generator above and re-export — anything up to ~200k works in the browser.

What formats can I download?

CSV, Excel (.xlsx), JSON, and SQL (a CREATE TABLE plus INSERT statements). Pick whatever fits your workflow.

Will I get the same file every time?

Yes. This page uses the fixed seed exceldash-demo, so the download is byte-identical on every machine. Clear the seed in the generator for fresh random data.

Can I get separate tables, messy data, or other formats?

Yes. Use Tables → Excel/SQL for a normalized multi-table export, switch on Messy / dirty data in Advanced options for nulls, typos and inconsistent dates, and choose CSV, Excel, JSON or SQL on any download.

Is the data real?

No — it is 100% synthetic, generated in your browser, with no real people or companies. Free to use commercially.
