Pinellas County SRX Licenses

SRX activity in Pinellas County

New Venue Data currently tracks 534 SRX (Special Restaurant / Food Service License) records in Pinellas County — about 15% of the 3,461 liquor and food-service licenses we hold for the county — concentrated in St. Petersburg, the Clearwater area, and Clearwater and Largo. Each one marks a Liquor business taking a concrete, documented step toward opening.

An SRX/SFS filing is one of the highest-intent signals in the dataset: a real, food-first restaurant with a full bar is being built. The 51%-food and 120-seat thresholds (lowered by SB 1262 in 2023, making SFS more accessible than SRX was) mean these are substantial, capital-intensive venues — prime net-new accounts for spirits, wine, and beer distributors, POS and reservation platforms, FF&E suppliers, and commercial insurance, all selected during the buildout window before opening day.

For sales teams working Pinellas County, the SRX feed is a precision filter: instead of every business in St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Dunedin, Pinellas Park, Palm Harbor, you see only the liquor prospects that fit your book. New Venue Data surfaces each SRX filing the day it lands at the Florida DBPR — weeks before a St. Petersburgoperator 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 Pinellas SRX stream by city and event type — new filings, renewals, and ownership transfers — route St. Petersburg leads to one rep and the rest of the Tampa Bay territory to another, push everything into your CRM through the API, or get a daily digest of every fresh SRX across St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Dunedin, Pinellas Park, Palm Harbor.
