Twin Cities Retail from the Drive-Through Lane - Where We Buy #399

Jeremy Grittner and Zac Hoang with JLL work with the local 7 Brew franchisee opening new locations across the Minneapolis region. Recorded from a car in the drive-through of the brand's first metro location in Vadnais Heights, they explain why 7 Brew sees a void in a market dominated by Starbucks and Caribou Coffee, what the brand needs from a site, and why drive-through real estate is so hard to come by in Minnesota. They also break down the metro's retail geography, from the Minneapolis and St. Paul cores out to the suburban trade areas, and share their recommendations for out-of-towners. Plus, a 7 Brew taste test.

James Cook is the Head of Retail Research for JLL.
