If your retail business is planning more than one new shop, Rivermark can search agreed locations and compare premises against your requirements.

## How we help.

We discuss your target towns, preferred property types and the requirements that apply across the search. We look for premises, compare available information and contact agents or owners about the options you select. The search and any work are agreed with you before it begins.

## Who this is for.

-   An independent business planning its next branches.
-   An established retailer entering new towns or regions.
-   A retail team comparing high-street, shopping-centre and retail-park opportunities.
-   A business looking for several shops against a common property brief.

## What to consider.

### Where to search

Identify priority towns, catchments or areas and the number of locations you want to consider. Record any locations or properties already reviewed.

### Requirements across the portfolio

Set out the size, frontage, layout, services and access each shop needs, and note where requirements vary by location.

### Comparing opportunities

Compare available information on space, quoted terms, costs and timing. Keep missing details visible before deciding which properties to pursue.

## Tell us the essentials.

Share what you know. We can discuss the rest.

-   Your business, target locations and number of shops.
-   The property types, size and frontage you need.
-   The rent or purchase budget and preferred terms, if known.
-   Your opening programme and properties already considered.

We agree the work and fees in writing before starting work or contacting anyone about a property.

## Common questions.

### Can you search several towns at once?

We can discuss a search covering multiple agreed towns or areas. Tell us your priorities, timing and the requirements that apply across them.

### Do you only work with large chains?

No. Independent businesses and established retailers can both discuss a search for additional shops.

### Will you contact an owner or agent without agreement?

We agree the work and fees in writing before starting and contact parties about the properties you select.
