At true scale
How big is the American market?
Five European countries drawn onto the states they match in area. France is 79% of Texas; the United Kingdom is 74% of Iowa and Missouri together. One border, 50 rulebooks. You don’t enter America, you enter a state.
Equal-area projection, every shape at true relative size.

What it runs on
Twelve data layers, one list
Who is licensed to distribute in your state? Which venues are worth a visit? Most sales teams answer that by hand, one call at a time.
Account Finder answers it in minutes, as one ranked list for your territory.
Twelve sources, one list
Licence and permit registries, live location data, city open data, federal business records, school and hospital rosters and our own award research. Every row is matched to one real business, then ranked against your brand.
Beyond the map pin
A map tells you a venue exists. It does not tell you if the venue is worth your time. Award and guide data puts a credibility signal next to every pin.
Three-tier literacy, built in
In the US, alcohol moves from producer to distributor to retailer: the three-tier system. Account Finder knows a distributor from a broker from a retail account, and flags the five control states where the state itself is the wholesaler.
How it works
Three steps to a ranked list
No stitched-together spreadsheets. No week of map searches.
Define your brand
Category, price tier, style, and the venues where you belong. Every result is scored through that lens, not by popularity.
Search a market
A city and a radius for accounts, or a US state for distributors and brokers.
Two modes
Accounts and distributors, in one screen
Both ends of the chain, same pipeline: find, remove duplicates, rank for fit, write an opener.
Market search
Enter a city and find the accounts worth a visit.
- Restaurants, bars, hotels, bottle shops, cafés and specialty retail within a 1-10 mile radius.
- Cross-checked against award and guide lists for your industry.
- A 1-5 fit score and a one-line opener for every account, tied to your brand profile.
- A ranked table and a map. Export to CSV or Google Sheets.
Distributor search
Pick a US state and find every importer and distributor holding a federal permit there.
- Every importer and distributor holding a federal permit in the state, plus state licence data where the state publishes it. Wine, spirits and beer.
- Ranked for fit: licence class, footprint, category focus, and portfolio notes where we have them.
- Control states flagged: MS, NH, PA, UT, WY. There the state itself is the wholesaler.
- It tells you who is licensed and how they fit on paper. It does not judge whether an importer would take your wine. That call is yours. Beverage alcohol only.

Who’s behind it
Built by someone who sells wine and spirits in the US
Account Finder is built and run by one person with 20 years in wine and spirits: producer, importer and distributor side, in Europe and the US.
Every ranking rule started as something he did by hand, so the tool works the way a rep works, not the way a database is easy to query. You deal directly with the founder.
