best location. What factors do you think we should consider?
B: Great news! Finding the right spot is crucial. There are a few key things that come to
my mind. Firstly, traffic is important. We want a location that's easily accessible for
potential customers.
A: Absolutely. A high-traffic area with good parking options would be great. But there's
more to consider, right?
B: Definitely. Competition is another big factor. Opening near established fashion stores
could be good, but it also means facing direct competition.

Renting cost?

anything else we should consider?

for choosing the best location?

location that's accessible, has potential customers, and fits our budget.
