Customized Trade Area

Discover: Custom Trade Area

Prepared for Athens_TN by Retail Strategies

Each retailer has a specific formula of market

criteria they use to determine if they will have a

profitable store. Understanding your trade area is

extremely important because it sets the

parameters for measuring demographic criteria

and spending potential sought by retailers.

Municipal boundaries, radius rings, and drive times

are a start to evaluating this information. However,

these predefined boundaries are unable to take

into account the unique aspects affecting the

pulling power and local geography of your

community. For these reasons, a customized trade

area is the next step to analyzing a market.

A trade area is the geographic area from which a

community attracts the majority of its customers.

We define your primary trade area by the base of

consumers likely to shop and eat in the market at

least once a month. Your primary trade area has

been created by combining mobile tracking data

with other factors such as: current retail mix in your

community, traffic patterns, destination attractions,

and proximity to competing markets.

The time and distance consumers are willing to

travel to shop is not “one size fits all.” Retailers will

analyze trade areas differently by accounting for

existing store locations, competition within their

retail category, and convenience.

Top Brands Not Likely

Each retailer has a specific formula of market

criteria they use to determine if they will have a

profitable store. Most retailers report to investors

which drives decisions on new store expansion.

Due to the current expansion plans and site

selection criteria not matching, it is unlikely these

three brands will open in Athens in the near future

unless something changes with the brand on a

national level.

Retail Strategies has been hired by the City of

Athens to proactively recruit retailers and

restaurants. The feedback from this report will

help Retail Strategies when marketing to these

brands. The demand is clear from the shopping

trade area that the brands would be supported.

TN Expanding Brands

MARTIN, TENNESSEE

Martin, Tennessee was quickly identified as a prospective city for Farmers Furniture. Our team worked with the Director of Economic and Community Development for Martin, TN,. Attempts to lease out this shopping center had been made before with a previous owner to no avail. The day that a buyer purchased the shopping center Retail Strategies had him introduced to the Farmers Furniture broker. After 5 months of deliberation the parties came to an agreement and executed a lease. Farmers Furniture opened fall of 2017.
