Site Selection

TAMPA, Fla. (February 11, 2019) — We’ve all seen the headlines of the so called “retail apocalypse” underway with major retail chains that are shuttering brick-and-mortar locations. Yet store closings ranging from Gymboree and Sears to Applebee’s seem to conflict with a positive outlook for consumer spending.

New York City has long been the epicenter for retail and restaurant chains. Not only is it home to a huge consumer market, but it also has that “it factor” that attracts everything from flagship stores to pop-ups. Yet – for the first time in more than a decade – chains are closing more stores in New York City than they’re opening.

TAMPA, Fla. (January 3, 2019) —  is pleased to announce the release of its latest platform, Savvy. This artificial intelligence-powered GIS solution gives brands and brokers access to comprehensive location data as a scalable first step to sophisticated location strategy.

The rise of the internet and the emergence of internet-based retail giants like Amazon have flipped the world of retail start-ups on its head. In the old world of brick-and-mortar retail, start-ups were launched according to a tried-and-true formula. New concepts were tested in high-traffic, historically proven retail markets. After the initial success of one or more test stores, a larger rollout in the test market followed. Once a brand saw continued sales success, they would expand to other markets and different regions, culminating in a national rollout.

Artificial intelligence is taking a bigger and bigger step into our everyday lives – and most people don’t even know it.

Location intelligence technology is creating a disruption in site selection by replacing “gut instincts” with data-driven decisions that help deliver stronger site selection performance and market optimization. SiteZeus was born to replace outdated site selection methodology – namely stale models that took a long time to build and did not guarantee accuracy.

SiteZeus is pleased to announce a new partnership with The Vitamin Shoppe® (NYSE:VSI), a specialty retailer that provides nutritional products across a portfolio of more than 775 company-operated stores. “SiteZeus is excited to bring its custom-tailored solution to The Vitamin Shoppe,” said Larry Salinas, Business Development, Sales Engineer at SiteZeus.

With their handmade food and strong focus on giving back to the communities they serve, Jack’s Family Restaurant is All About the South – and thanks to a new partnership with SiteZeus, they’re getting ready to expand to more locations than ever before.

We all hear about how A.I. is changing the world of retail real estate, and it’s true, companies like SiteZeus are using machine learning to predict sales revenue blazingly fast and accurate. However, intuition hasn’t lost its place. Real Estate Directors know that sometimes the “vibe” of the location just doesn’t fit the brand.

California Tortilla will bring their fresh perspective on Mexican food to more locations than ever, with help from SiteZeus’ best-in-class location intelligence platform.

At the 2018 Restaurant Finance & Development Conference in Las Vegas, Keenan Baldwin, SiteZeus’ Co-Founder, sat amongst an experienced panel of four real estate professionals to talk about the restaurant and real estate development.
