Marion County APS Licenses

APS activity in Marion County

New Venue Data currently tracks 432 APS (Package Store (Off-Premises)) records in Marion County — about 44% of the 978 liquor and food-service licenses we hold for the county — concentrated in Ocala, the Ocala area, and Belleview and Dunnellon. Each one marks a Package business taking a concrete, documented step toward opening.

A new APS opening is a retail shelf-space and wholesale supply opportunity rather than a hospitality one. The tier tells a distributor precisely which product lines a new retailer can carry, making APS filings ideal leads for wholesalers, merchandisers, shelving and refrigeration vendors, and POS providers targeting off-premises retail.

For sales teams working Marion County, the APS feed is a precision filter: instead of every business in Ocala, Belleview, Dunnellon, Summerfield, Silver Springs, Ocklawaha, you see only the package prospects that fit your book. New Venue Data surfaces each APS filing the day it lands at the Florida DBPR — weeks before a Ocalaoperator appears on a review site or a competitor's list — so your reps can reach the owner while the buildout budget is still open.

Filter the Marion APS stream by city and event type — new filings, renewals, and ownership transfers — route Ocala leads to one rep and the rest of the Central territory to another, push everything into your CRM through the API, or get a daily digest of every fresh APS across Ocala, Belleview, Dunnellon, Summerfield, Silver Springs, Ocklawaha.
