What to look at on the map

For a pharmacy, the location factors that matter most are different from a generic retail store. When you scan Berlin on the interactive map, focus on these:

    Residents within 800m walk.

  • 🤝Complementary businesses

    Adjacent clinic / hospital = referral flow.

  • ⚔️Direct competitors (1km)
