A multi $bn national supermarket retailer engaged Solve to prepare a network strategy. Whilst the client has strong in-house capabilities, our strong understanding of development pipeline and population modelling was required to supplement the existing strategy. The study location had a unique set of demand drivers outside of the traditional housing market including challenging catchments, new infrastructure delivery, increased health services / employment drivers, and growth in the education sector. Our strategic planning skills complimented our research to interpret the implications of future demand, identify new areas of growth, and uncover strategic issues to address in execution.
