How to build continuous per-market scoring for multi-location franchise expansion + territory planning

This guide explains how to architect the per-market-scoring-rollup skill on the territory-management agent end-to-end at multi-location franchise + multi-store + multi-market scale: per-portfolio per-canonical-multi-vendor-market-data-ingestion + per-canonical-per-market-feature-engineering + per-canonical-per-vertical-scoring-weight-spec + per-canonical-per-market-scoring-model + per-canonical-continuous-rolling-update-cadence + per-canonical-per-market-closure-scoring + per-canonical-per-territory-overlap-conflict-resolution + per-canonical-per-territory-FDD-Item-12-compliance + per-canonical-per-market-recommendation + per-portfolio audit-trail.

Per-canonical-per-market-feature-engineering — per-demographic (population + median household income + age distribution + education attainment + racial/ethnic composition + household type + employment rate) + per-economic (GDP + unemployment + job growth + wage growth + poverty rate) + per-mobility (foot traffic + visit frequency + dwell time + trip origin-destination + cross-shopping) + per-real-estate (commercial vacancy + rent per sqft + cap rate + co-tenant mix) + per-competition (competitor density + cannibalization risk + market share) + per-regulatory (cannabis license availability + zoning + state AG restriction).

Why per-vendor-Placer.ai-Foot-Traffic-single-account breaks at multi-location-franchise-expansion scale

Per-vendor-Placer.ai-canonical-Foot-Traffic ships per-account per-CBSA per-foot-traffic-metric primitive. Per-vendor-Esri + Buxton + SafeGraph + Foursquare + Spatial.AI + Mosaic + Tetrad + Sites USA + Tango + LandVision-canonical-single-account ship per-vendor per-native site-selection primitives.

At 1-market-1-expansion-study scale per-account per-CBSA per-foot-traffic-metric primitive is enough. At 200-location-multi-market-franchise-expansion scale per-multi-vendor-market-data-cross-vendor + per-vertical-scoring-weight-spec-not-generic-template + per-continuous-vs-project-based-scoring-rolling-update + per-market-closure-scoring-not-greenfield-only + per-territory-overlap-conflict-resolution + per-territory-FDD-franchise-disclosure-Item-12-compliance + per-market-recommendation-prioritized-ranking.

The operator-side architecture above per-vendor-site-selection primitive is canonical-multi-vendor-market-data-ingestion + per-market-feature-engineering + per-vertical-scoring-weight-spec + per-market-scoring-model + per-continuous-rolling-update-cadence + per-market-closure-scoring + per-territory-overlap-conflict-resolution + per-FDD-Item-12-compliance + per-market-recommendation + per-portfolio-audit-trail.
