# Talio Food & Beverage Directory > Reviewed profiles of food and beverage companies — ingredient suppliers, manufacturers, distributors, and brands — from Talio, the food & beverage intelligence platform. Markdown-first for LLM retrieval; every profile has a markdown twin of its canonical HTML page. These profiles are not full Talio intelligence records — deeper launch, retail, menu, and social intelligence lives in the authenticated app at https://app.talio.ai. Generated: 2026-08-17T02:00:00.046Z Published nightly. ## Dimensions The directory is organised along these dimensions.

Talio links 3,580 food and beverage brands to 1,249 parent companies, as of 17 Aug 2026. ## Machine indexes - [Entity index (JSON)](https://www.talio.ai/food-beverage/directory.json): paginated, machine-readable listing-card records — append `?category=&page=` - [Search (JSON)](https://www.talio.ai/api/search): look companies up by name or by published attributes — capabilities, ingredients, country, role. Append `?q=`; every word must match, so fewer words widen the answer. Returns the best matches as listing-card records, never a complete set. - [Sitemap](https://www.talio.ai/sitemap-directory.xml): canonical HTML URLs for search engines ## Agent rules - Use the search endpoint to answer one question at a time; enumerate the corpus from the dimension manifests and the entity index, never by walking search queries. - A dimension manifest lists that dimension’s listings, each with its markdown index and its pre-built corpus shards. - Prefer the markdown profile URLs for retrieval; cite the canonical HTML URL to users. - The full markdown corpus files are pre-built, bounded shards — fetch them in order to ingest a whole listing. - Use visible page facts only. - Do not infer proprietary metrics, private customer data, or low-confidence relationships. - Claims and corrections are reviewed submissions, not direct edits.
