You can count on our strong real estate support from site selection to store build-out to ensure your location achieves maximum efficiency to serve your target customers. Finding the perfect location can be difficult; thankfully, our team of experts is there to help with all of your real estate needs.

Real Estate Guidance

We know that location is a key factor in the success of retail businesses. Save A Lot has a team of real estate professionals that are ready to help Retail Partners with all of their real estate needs. Our experts provide knowledge, time and cost savings, and industry best practices around lease negotiations. Your store’s location, lease terms, and financial agreements can positively influence future business profitability.

Location Considerations

When you become a licensee with Save A Lot, there are a set of parameters for finding a perfect location for your store. Some of the considerations our team factors into their decision making include:

  • Population of 20,000 in urban trade areas; 10,000 in rural areas
  • Target median household income of $50,000 or less
  • Total building size of 12,000 to 18,000 square feet
  • Typical parking ratio of four spaces per 1,000 square feet
  • Ground-up, freestanding or in-line retail space
  • Neighborhood/community center location

Highly Efficient Stores

Our unique, ultraefficient strategic layout allows our Retail Partners to run a highly productive store in a smaller retail footprint. We’re able to do this with a minimally staffed shop floor, limited assortment, and minimal backroom warehouse space. This efficient layout helps keep rent and overhead costs lower compared to larger conventional grocery stores and has a maximum impact on your bottom line.

Store Conversion

Converting to Save A Lot could be your opportunity to upgrade to a more competitive model. We can help your existing stores increase efficiency and profitability by leveraging the high demand for savings with our limited use of SKUs and deep discount concept. When you become a Save A Lot Retail Partner, we’ll provide you with virtually everything you need to revamp your locations for a stronger bottom line.

Acquire Operating Trading Locations

Save A Lot is offering a unique opportunity for interested Retail Partners. We’re relicensing many of our corporate stores to independent retail operator locations for a limited time. This relicensing opportunity dramatically reduces the time it takes to open your Save A Lot store.

Save A Lot’s supermarket chain licensing opportunity gives you the freedom to run your own business with the support of an experienced team behind you.

Contact Save A Lot today to learn more about our supermarket licensing opportunity and all of the support that comes with it.
