Three Levels of Analysis
PPT 8-3
Trade Area Issues
• Which Trade Areas Are Most Attractive for Locating Retail Outlets?
• How Many Outlets to Locate in a Trade Area?
– More Stores Increases Economies of Scale and Reduces Costs
– More Stores also Results in More Cannibalization and Less Sales per Store
PPT 8-4
Factors Affecting the Attractiveness of a Site
• How Attractive Is the Site to the Retailer’s Target Market?
– Match Between Trade Area Demographics and Retailer’s Target Market
– Likelihood of Customers Coming to Location
• Convenience
• Other Attractive Retailers At Location
Principle of cumulative attraction - a cluster of similar and complementary retailing activities will have greater drawing power.
PPT 8-5
Convenience of Going to Site Accessibility
• Road pattern and condition
• Natural and artificial barriers
• Visibility
• Traffic flow
• Parking
• Congestion
• Ingress/egress
PPT 8-6
• In High Traffic Areas
•Center of Shopping Area
• Near Stores Selling Complementary Merchandise
•Clustering Specialty Stores Appealing to Teenagers
• Better locations cost more
Location Within a Center
PPT 8-7
Estimating Demand for a New Location
• Definition of the Trade Area
– Primary, Secondary, Tertiary Zones
• Approaches for Estimating Demand
– Analog Approach
– Regression Approach
– Huff Gravity Model
PPT 8-8
Trade Area
Primary zone - 60 to 65 percent of its customers
Secondary zone - 20 percent of a store’s sales
Tertiary zone - customers who occasionally shop at the store or shopping center
PPT 8-9
Factors Defining Trade Areas
•Accessibility
•Natural & Physical Barriers
•Type of Shopping Area
•Type of Store
•Competition
•Parasite Stores
PPT 8-10
Sources of Information
• Customer Spotting
• Census Data
• Geodemographic Information Systems
• Information on Competition
– Yellow Pages
PPT 8-11
Customer Spotting
Purpose: to spot, or locate, the residences of customers for a store or shopping center.
How to obtain data:
• credit card or checks
• customer loyalty programs
• manually as part of the checkout process
• automobile license plates
PPT 8-12
Census Data of the U.S.
.
Only once in 10 years.
Each household in the country is counted to determine the number of persons per household, household relationships, sex, race age and marital status.
PPT 8-13
Geodemographic Information Systems
Demographic data vendors specialize in repackaging and updating census-type data.
Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer system that enables analysts to visualize information about their customers’ demographics, buying behavior, and other data in a map format.
• GIS is a spatial database that stores the location and shape of information.
• Analysts can identify the boundaries of a trade area and isolate target customer groups
PPT 8-14
Indices for Assessing Sales Potential
• Market Potential Index (MPI)
– Number of Households Purchasing a Product or Service in a Trade Area
• Spending Potential Index (SPI)
– Average Amount Spent on a Product or Service by a Household in a Trade Area
PPT 8-15
Sources for Measuring Competition
• The Internet - lists current locations and future sites.
• Yellow Pages
• Other Sources: Directories published by trade associations, chambers of commerce, Chain Store Guide, International Council of Shopping Centers, Urban Land Institute, local newspaper advertising departments, municipal and county governments, specialized trade magazines, list brokers
PPT 8-16
Measuring Competition
• Calculate total square footage of retail space
devoted to a type of store per household
• Higher ratios will indicate higher levels of
competition

PPT 8-18
Methods for Estimating Demand
Analog Approach
Multiple Regression Analysis
Huff’s Model
PPT 8-19
The Analog Approach
1. Current trade area is determined by using the customer spotting technique.
2. Based on the density of customers from the store, the primary, secondary and tertiary trade area zones are defined.
3. Match the characteristics of our current store with the potential new stores’ locations to determine the best site.

Multiple Regression Analysis
• Need to define the retail trade area potential for retail chains with greater than 20 stores.
• Similar to the analog approach, it uses statistics rather than judgement to predict sales for a new store.
PPT 8-29
Multiple Regression Steps
• Current trade areas are determined by using the customer spotting technique
• Primary, secondary, and tertiary zones are determined by plotting customers on a map
• Select appropriate measures of performance, such as per capita sales or market share.
• Select a set of variables that may be useful in predicting performance.
• Solve the regression equation and use it to project performance for future sites.

Huff’s Gravity Model
Based on the premise that the probability that a given customer will shop in a particular store
or shopping center becomes larger as the size of store or center grows and distance or
travel time from customer shrinks
