Outmaneuvering the big box
Article Abstract:
Success in the retail real estate market is conditioned primarily by access to site selection and lease information. Even when competing against a dominant competitor in the same area, smaller retailers can gain a competitive edge by adjusting location based on traffic flow, by locating near the competitor and the area's main business district and by determining entry and exit points most favorable to customers. Retailers should also prepare lease document related information for the benefit of their customers.
