Choosing the right storefront is one of the highest-leverage decisions a new dealer makes. Here is what we look at during every site evaluation.
1. Visibility and frontage
Ground-floor units with wide frontage on a main road outperform interior/lane locations for walk-in retail sales.
2. Proximity to construction activity
Areas with active residential or commercial construction feed a steady pipeline of bulk and contractor orders.
3. Storage for a tinting machine
You need enough back-of-store space for a colour-tinting machine, base stock and safe storage of solvents.
4. Competing dealers nearby
A degree of category presence validates demand, but too much overlap compresses margins — our team checks saturation before approving a territory.
5. Parking and loading access
Bulk-bucket customers and contractors need easy vehicle access for loading — a major factor in repeat business.
