The moment
A new kitchen picks its POS, its distributor, its pest contract, its hood-cleaning schedule, its linen account and its insurance in the few weeks between the inspector's first walk-through and opening night.
The Open Sign catches a spot the day its pre-opening inspection is on file, often weeks before the license issues. Each one comes with its license stack, the inspector's own notes and the build-out permits at the address.
Who it's for
- POS and payment vendors
- Food and beverage distributors
- Pest control
- Hood cleaning and ventilation
- Linen and uniform services
- Restaurant insurance brokers
- Equipment dealers and smallwares
What you get
- Kitchens, bars and markets in the opening pipeline, licensed or walked and not yet licensed
- The licenses on file and the pre-opening inspection results
- The inspector's list of what's left to fix before the next visit
- Build-out permits at the address
- A grade on every spot, with chains and household names set aside
The outcome
Your rep calls with the inspector's list already in hand and knows what the kitchen still has to sort out. You're the first vendor they hear from instead of the fifth.
Questions buyers ask
- Does a failed pre-opening inspection mean something is wrong?
- No. Not Ready and Fail are routine before a re-inspection, and they don't say anything about the food. They tell you the spot is close.
- Is every licensed spot already trading?
- Some are and some are weeks away. The license date is the day the city issued the license, which is often a different day from opening night.
- Do I get a phone number?
- The city's files don't carry one. For the top of the list we match each spot to its public business profile and pass along the number listed there.
