What the model is seeing
Café is the strongest scored format at 71/100, 10 points above retail at 61/100. The suburb verdict is VERIFY at 66/100.
Demand at 5/10 is the constraint. Rent pressure is 3/10 and competition is 2/10, so the model is not mainly warning about cost or saturation.
This is a reading of the five factors and three format scores on this page. It is not a rent quote, a competitor count, or a reason to sign a lease.
