LocalPulse for retail & grocery

Know which days the street will be busy, and why.

Store trade is moved by things outside the door: a warm Saturday, a payday, a cruise ship in port, school holidays, roadworks. LocalPulse reads those signals for your location and Jev sets a signed starting effect for each one based on what you sell and where you are; your sales history then measures what each actually does to you.

What moves your trade

The drivers that matter for retail & grocery

Typical directions to start from. For your business, Jev sets a signed starting effect for each driver from what you tell us about it; your own data then confirms or overrules each one, and the dashboard shows where they disagree.

  • Weathereither way

    A garden centre and a shopping-mall store respond to the same rain in opposite directions. Each driver is signed for your store, not your industry.

  • Paydays and holidaysusually lifts

    Payday weekends and the run-up to public holidays, modelled as separate drivers.

  • Cruise ships and visitorsusually lifts

    Cruise calls near waterfront stores, sized by the ship's passenger capacity, from published port schedules.

  • Disruptionusually holds back

    Road closures, strikes and severe weather from local news, dated to when they hit.

Questions it answers

Ask it about your own days.

  • How much does a cruise day add?
  • Which Saturdays next month look unusual?
  • Did the roadworks cost us?
  • Do school holidays help this store?
