Abstract: The selection of an optimal location is a critical factor influencing the success and sustainability of retail businesses, as it directly impacts customer accessibility, revenue generation, and long-term growth. This paper presents a data-driven framework for predicting suitable retail store locations using machine learning techniques. The proposed system integrates diverse datasets, including demographic, economic, and geographic information, to evaluate location suitability based on key factors such as population density, income distribution, competitor presence, and accessibility. Multiple supervised learning algorithms, namely Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), are implemented and comparatively analyzed. Feature engineering methods are employed to extract meaningful attributes, including competitor density and accessibility indices, to enhance model performance. The models are evaluated using standard performance metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The best-performing model is deployed through a Flask-based web application to provide real-time location predictions. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in improving prediction accuracy and supporting data-driven decision-making. The system offers a scalable solution for retail planning, enabling businesses to reduce financial risks and optimize strategic investments.
