What Matters Most When Opening a Bangladeshi Restaurant in Chicago

Selecting a high-survivability address is the single most cost-effective risk reduction available before signing a lease. Everything downstream depends on it. Revenue Capture Score captures the interplay between market share and consumer spending — the two biggest drivers of success. StreetSpring computes this by projecting the business's market share, which is based on the quality and quantity of primary, secondary, and tertiary competitors. Our models are built using machine learning trained on millions of commercial real estate data points. A certain density of competitors signals strong demand and can benefit all businesses. The prediction engine behind these rankings is entirely proprietary — developed in-house over years of research.

Area to check	What can go wrong	How to de-risk it
Foot traffic seasonality	Looking at a peak-summer Tuesday and assuming year-round volume.	Walk the block at 3 different times across 2 different weeks. Ask neighboring tenants for their slow-season % drop.
Competitor density	Counting only direct competitors and missing adjacent-category overlap (e.g. coffee shop near a bakery).	Map all businesses serving overlapping customer needs within a 5-min walk. Use StreetSpring's competitor view as a starting point.
Parking & visibility	Storefront looks great from the sidewalk but is invisible from the road.	Drive past at 30 mph from both directions. Count street parking + nearest paid lot capacity at peak hours.

This can be summarized as:

Revenue Capture Score = Projected Market Share × Forecasted Spend on Specific Business
