Data by ChainXY, STI: Market Outlook and Shopping Center Database, Inc. Information is presented without verification or warranty. Page 1 5000 Murfreesboro Road 5000 Murfreesboro Road | La Vergne TN Void Analysis Overview The match scoring algorithm is a proprietary index created by SiteSeer Technologies and provides the user with a visual indicator of how well one’s site trade area matches the typical site location profile of each tenant chain. The match score ranges from 0-100 with a score of zero indicating that the chain has never located in a trade area similar to yours and a score of 100 indicating that the chain always locates in a trade area like yours. The algorithm looks at both (a) the percentage of times each chain locates in a trade area similar to yours, and (b) how far each site metric is from the chain’s median site profile. The site profile is determined by the types of communities and trade areas where the tenant typically locates; site characteristics such as whether the chain typically locates in primary or secondary retail areas, on major arteries, or in areas of high business traffic; and trade area consumer demographics and behavior. The cotenant column indicates how often each tenant co-locates with your site’s existing anchors or major tenants. For example, if the tenant shown on the report “ABC Retail” has a cotenant result of 25% and your anchor is Target, 25% of ABC Retail locations are co-located with Target.
