Trail's End follows a structured process for selecting storefront locations to ensure successful storefront sales. Below is an overview of the selection process, criteria, and how you can suggest specific stores for consideration.
Overview of the Storefront Selection Process
Trail's End selects storefront locations based on specific criteria to maximize the success of storefront sales. The team reviews and prioritizes locations that meet these criteria, ensuring high visibility and foot traffic.
Criteria for Selecting Storefront Locations
The primary factors considered when selecting storefront locations include:
High Foot Traffic: Locations with a high volume of visitors are prioritized to increase sales opportunities.
Available locations: We strive to schedule the number of hours to meet demand in the area without overscheduling. Possible locations are ranked and we attempt to schedule the highest ranked stores first.
Process for Submitting Store Suggestions
If you have a specific store in mind for storefront sales, you can submit your suggestion to Trail's End. Here’s how the process works:
Submit Your Suggestion: Provide the name and location of the store you’d like to suggest.
Review by Trail's End: The team will review your suggestion to determine if the store is on our call list and/or if it meets the selection criteria. The Trail's End team also considers the available hours in the location to determine if additional hours would be useful.
Approval or Next Steps: If the store meets the criteria, it will be added to the list of locations that we will attempt to schedule. If it does not meet the criteria, we will confirm that you can contact the store directly.
Special Considerations for Walmart Locations
Walmart locations are given special attention during the selection process. Here’s what you need to know:
Always Pursued: Trail's End actively pursues Walmart locations due to their high foot traffic and visibility.
Unlisted Walmarts: If a Walmart location is not listed, it typically means that the request for that location was not approved.
