Products / By trade

Leads for shopfitters and fit-out contractors: new venues before the work is let.

On the supply side of a fit-out, the jobs you win are the ones you hear about early. A licence application is public weeks before a venue trades.

What to look for

The records that matter to you.

New applications

A unit being licensed for the first time is usually a unit being fitted out. The record names the company behind it and whether it is a new operator, a chain or a landlord.

Transfers

New owners tend to refit. Transfers are not advertised in a newspaper, so the council register is the only public place they appear.

Full variations

A venue changing its hours, its layout or its offer is often refurbishing at the same time.
