I moved into an estate at the end of 2007 and at the time the sales lady told me spar would be opening a store in a building at the front of the estate. No store has opened in the 3000sq ft building and it is advertised on daft at 90,000 a year since early 2008.
Every day as i walk past the empty building it makes me curious as to why nobody would take it on. The estate has 250 three and four bedroom houses and i guesstimate a catchment area of a further 200 houses.
How does a supermarket franchise like spar work?
Spar provide marketing, advertising and sales support and in return the franchisee agrees to purchase all stock from them?
What kind of turnover is expected from one of these shops?
I think the estate could support a small shop but possibly not the turnover required for one of the supermakets chains.
