## About

Locate helps multi-unit and franchise retail brands decide where to open next. The company pairs proprietary AI site-selection models — built on demographics, foot-traffic and mobile data, competition, and each brand's own store performance — with a full-service real estate brokerage team. Locate runs the full path from portfolio analysis and go-to-market strategy through site sourcing, revenue forecasting, and lease execution, so growth decisions are made on evidence rather than instinct. Locate serves retail and restaurant brands across the United States.
