We believe the best time to reach a new business is before they've made their first vendor decision.
When a restaurant or bar files their liquor or food-service license with the state, they're announcing to anyone paying attention: we're opening soon, and we need vendors. That window — the weeks between filing and first pour — is when every vendor relationship gets decided.
New Venue Data was built to deliver that signal to the teams that need it. We pull Florida DBPR public records daily, normalize them into structured events, and deliver them via API, webhooks, and data exports to distributors, suppliers, POS companies, payroll providers, and PE firms.
Public Records, Made Useful
Florida's Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) publishes all liquor and food-service license applications as public records. The data is technically available to anyone — but it's buried in an antiquated portal, inconsistently structured, and updated on an unpredictable cadence.
We solve that. Our pipeline scrapes DBPR daily, runs the raw data through entity resolution, address normalization, and deduplication, then classifies every change as a typed event: new_filing, renewal, ownership_transfer, status_change, or cancellation.
The output is a clean, normalized, consistently-structured feed that your team can consume via REST API, webhook push, or CSV export — without any of the data wrangling.
FCRA Compliance Notice
New Venue Data sells data about business entities only — not individual consumers. We are not a consumer reporting agency (CRA) under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), and our data may not be used for FCRA-governed purposes including: employment screening, tenant screening, or credit decisions affecting individual consumers.
Our customers are B2B teams using business-entity data for sales prospecting, market intelligence, and distribution intelligence — all legitimate FCRA-safe use cases.
Built for Reliability
Raw public records are messy. Our normalization pipeline turns them into structured, trustworthy data.
Entity Resolution
Every record is matched to a canonical business entity across all FL DBPR filing systems — eliminating duplicates and tracking ownership changes over time.
Address Geocoding
All addresses are standardized to USPS format and geocoded to lat/lng for geographic analysis, mapping, and territory-level filtering.
DBA Normalization
Legal names and DBA names are resolved to a single record. When a transfer occurs, we link the old and new owners across filings.
Daily Source Refresh
Every license record is compared against the latest DBPR snapshot daily. Renewals, cancellations, and status changes are detected and classified.
