FAQ
Retail site selection, answered
What is Locate?+
Locate is an AI-integrated retail real estate brokerage for multi-unit brands. It combines proprietary AI site-selection models with full-service advisory to help brands choose markets, score sites, forecast revenue, and negotiate leases — one team from the first market to the signed lease.
What is retail site selection?+
Retail site selection is the process of deciding where a brand opens physical locations: which markets to enter, which trade areas to target, and which specific sites will perform. Modern site selection pairs demographic, foot-traffic, competitive, and co-tenancy data with predictive models to forecast performance before a lease is signed.
How does Locate choose retail locations?+
Locate profiles a brand's best-performing stores, ranks every U.S. market by fit and opportunity, scores candidate sites against the brand's own criteria, and forecasts year-one revenue using analog stores — then its advisors source the sites and negotiate the lease.
How is Locate different from a traditional broker?+
A traditional broker sells relationships; a software platform sells dashboards. Locate owns both halves — proprietary AI intelligence and full-service brokerage in one team — so the analysis that finds a site is delivered by the same people who sign it.
Who is Locate for?+
Multi-unit and franchise retail brands expanding their physical footprint — from emerging concepts opening their next few locations to established brands managing a national pipeline.
How much better do Locate-selected locations perform?+
Locate-selected locations average roughly 15% higher sales versus market, and its models weigh 1,100+ variables per site, calibrated to each brand's own performance data.
