How to select a retail location
A good location must fit the operator’s demand, access, visibility, size, cost and technical model.

Catchment area
It is not measured by distance alone: barriers, travel times, flows, habits and competition matter.
Traffic and access
Visible traffic does not always convert into customers if access is difficult or parking is insufficient.
Unit format
Frontage, height, depth, loading, extraction, power and layout affect the roll-out.
Opening economics
Rent, investment, rent-free period, term and projected sales must produce sustainable occupancy.
Conditions precedent
The transaction should protect licence approval and technical validation where uncertainty remains.
Conclusion
The analysis should lead to a clear decision: hold, invest, renegotiate, reposition, market or walk away. The more uncertainty removed before presenting the transaction, the lower the discount typically required by the market.
