Unleash the full capacity of your retail business by finding the very best new sites for optimal growth. Discover why some sites have additional revenue potential and why others don't by understanding the consumer spending (demand) and the competitive set (supply) in each trade area.

This report leaves no stone unturned because it can compare the potential across any and every trade area in Canada, with over 200 retail categories to choose from! Chose two categories for each report and we guarantee you to find the very best locations for your business and make sure none are missed.

This report also pioneers the use of consumer reviews inside the site selection process. For example, potential sites with a low consumer sentiment for existing brands may signal that that the site is ready for a new entry.

This report compares and ranks the opportunity of over 200 retail categories for a single location. It also provides an analysis of consumer brand awareness and sentiment for the existing brands and pioneers its use in location analytics. For example, retail categories where existing brands have an overall low sentiment may signal that the trade area is ready for a new entry.
