How we count

We download every shop tagged with each retailer’s brands from OpenStreetMap, and count one brand at one spot once.
OpenStreetMap is mapped by volunteers. It misses some shops and lists some that have closed, so these are mapped shops, not official store counts. Retailers’ own counts are in their results.
A change between counts can be a real opening or closure, or a shop someone has added to or removed from the map. Large moves usually mean real openings, conversions or closures.

We don’t take outside money, but we always like talking markets and commerce.

Who is opening, who is closing.
