| contents | This paper continues to develop and explore the impact of multipurpose trips on retail location. We develop the model of locating multiple competing facilities of a chain where several competing facilities exist in the area. There may be some existing facilities of the same chain as well. The addition of multiple new outlets can cause cannibalization of existing sales, but this effect is mitigated by selecting good locations, and the total market share captured by the chain increases. The introduction of multipurpose trips enhances the total market share of the location decision maker. Since in reality many customers combine a visit to more than one facility in one shopping trip, the model predicts the expected market share captured more accurately. Therefore, the selected locations for new facilities are more accurate as well. |
