So I have the following namedtuple, containing multiple items:
[item(company='MARINE AND GENERAL MUTUAL LIFE ASSURANCE SOCIETY', google_name='no results', place_id='no results', formatted_address='no results'),
item(company='KENTSTONE PROPERTIES LIMITED', google_name='no results', place_id='no results', formatted_address='no results'),
item(company='ASHFORD CATTLE MARKET COMPANY LIMITED(THE)', google_name=u'The Ashford Cattle Market Co Ltd', place_id=u'ChIJRSxF4gbb3kcRCjmXJcSWOrI', formatted_address=u'The New Ashford Market Monument Way, Orbital Park, Ashford TN24 0HB, United Kingdom'),
item(company='ORIENTAL GAS COMPANY, LIMITED(THE)', google_name=u'Orient Express Hotels', place_id=u'ChIJffRJYVVYwokReF_qwmzMgh0', formatted_address=u'1155 Ave of the Americas, New York, NY 10036, United States'),
item(company='BRITISH INDIA STEAM NAVIGATION COMPANY LIMITED', google_name=u'British-India Steam-Navigation Co Ltd', place_id=u'ChIJe6yzIVN2AjoRZdGKagFvkvs', formatted_address=u'54/7, Bisha Lakshmitala Road, Parnashree, Kolkata, West Bengal 700060, India')]
I would like to add those items to MySQL database, to the table called place_id, this is what I've got so far:
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO place_id (company, google_name, place_id, formatted_address) VALUES (%(company)s, %(google_name)s, %(place_id), %(formatted_address)s" ....
And I don't know where to go from there.
I would like to add the items via for loop (or executemany, but I am not that familiar with it). I am already connected to the database via MySQLdb module.
Thank you for your help.

Assuming item really is a namedtuple and deducing from the order of arguments that it's declared like
item = namedtuple('item', 'company google_name place_id formatted_address')
there's no need to use named placeholders in your query, unless you really want to. Just use the normal sequence formatting style that works with tuples:
# assuming items is a reference to the list of item instances you gave
# in the example
cursor.executemany("INSERT INTO place_id "
"(company, google_name, place_id, formatted_address) "
"VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s)", items)
To use the named placeholder version you could convert the list of items to a sequence of OrderedDicts (a sequence of mappings) with namedtuple._asdict, but there's really no need for this:
cursor.executemany("INSERT INTO place_id "
"(company, google_name, place_id, formatted_address) "
"VALUES (%(company)s, %(google_name)s, %(place_id)s, %(formatted_address)s",
(i._asdict() for i in items))
