General B2B tools sort companies by industry code and people by job title. “Food & beverages” puts a restaurant chain, a snack brand and a frozen-fish importer in the same bucket, and their coverage is thinner outside the US, where most food importers are small and mid-sized companies with little online presence in English. Trade-data platforms show customs shipments, which proves a company imports but gives you no one to write to.
In our platform every company is a food importer, distributor or wholesaler, profiled by the categories, products and brands it handles, and often by the countries it buys from. Contacts are purchasing contacts, not the whole staff list. The information is researched and reviewed by analysts who work only on this sector.
