Analyse site trade areas

Map your site locations to understand spatial distribution and performance trends anywhere in the world. Visualise competitor and key generator locations and define trade areas to analyse gaps and overlaps between your sites.

Profile the areas in which your sites are located using big data, wireless or social media feeds. Use your analysis to determine target site profile to deliver the quickest return for new site openings, franchise or equity split or optimal site type e.g. solus or mall.

Quantify market potential

Optimise existing market penetration by understanding your existing coverage and identifying new sites. Assess overlaps between site trade areas to understand the impact of cannibalisation.
