Retail Store Surveys

Capturing accurate information about your store estate, the layouts, fixtures and fittings

Our experienced surveyors will tailor the contents of your retail survey to your project requirements, the desired outcome and your budget.

Working throughout the UK and Europe, we will obtain the information you need for any scale of project, whether at a single location or a multitude of sites.

Our surveyors use both digital-laser and traditional survey methods as appropriate, and we can deliver your information as 2D CAD plans, 3D models or an interactive StoreView® experience.

Store surveys tailored to your specific needs

We understand the importance of cost-effectively capturing the information you need. We will work with you to agree the specification to achieve the desired balance in cost, quality and time whether you require the information for construction, equipment and space audits or project roll-outs.

Architectural retail surveys

If you have recently purchased a site and are planning construction works or are altering a site you already own, we can quickly and accurately capture detailed measurements in a laser survey and deliver the data to your project team’s desktop, enabling them to start work immediately.

Audit surveys to verify existing plans

While an internal audit survey can be used to verify the accuracy of any existing instore information such as space, equipment, fixtures and commodities. Your floorplans can then be updated to contain the very latest data ready for use in your store planning projects whether you are planning a major intervention, a seasonal range review or rebalancing existing space allocations.

Retail project rollout surveys

As the name suggests, when rolling out an internal or external change across the store portfolio a project rollout survey can be commissioned. This will provide the site-specific information needed to enable delivery of the project within multiple stores across your estate.
