What food, beverage and supply distributors ask first.
Where do the opening leads come from?
City and county building permits, planning agendas, Florida DBPR plan reviews and licenses, business tax receipts and local news across Orange, Seminole, Osceola, Lake, Volusia, Brevard, Polk, Marion, Flagler and Sumter counties. Every stage links to the document behind it.
How early do you catch an opening?
Often at the site plan or first permit, months before the state license. ClueVi shows every stage it has found and the date of each, and says plainly when a place is not open yet.
Do I get the owner’s name and number?
When a public record names one. Each contact is labeled with where it came from: a state filing, a permit application, or the restaurant’s own site.
