Foodservice hotel & lodging data
Every hotel foodservice account combines property-level operator data, distribution signals, and verified decision-maker contacts. No need to stitch together brand directories, LinkedIn searches, and cold guesses about who controls purchasing.
Known distributor & GPO relationships
See a property's known distributors and known GPOs before you reach out, so you know whether there's already a path to order instead of finding out after you've sent a sample or quoted a price.
Chain size & geography
Filter by chain size, state, city, and ZIP code to build territory-specific target lists and separate large multi-unit chains from independent, single-location properties.
Guest rating & review volume
Average rating and total review count for each property: a proxy for guest-experience investment, useful for finding the properties most likely to care about premium ingredients and presentation.
Verified hotel F&B purchasing contacts
Directors of food & beverage, executive chefs, and chain-level hotel purchasing contacts, verified and refreshed when you request them.

Frequently asked questions
Our hotel foodservice dataset includes verified contacts for the people who control F&B purchasing at a property: Directors of Food & Beverage, executive chefs, and purchasing contacts, plus corporate contacts like the VP of Food & Beverage or corporate executive chef for larger chains. For independent properties, the GM is often part of that decision-making group too.
Start by using First Bite's hotel and lodging foodservice dataset to build a target list of properties that match your ideal customer profile. Filter by chain size, geography, or known distributor/GPO relationships.
