Geographic Research, Inc. (GRI) is pleased to sponsor the fourth annual American Collegiate Retailing Association’s Undergraduate Student Retail Analysis Competition. This is the second year GRI has sponsored the competition, which will focus on a location analysis for Port of Subs sandwich shops. Student teams will compete by selecting a new site for a Port of Subs franchise store and developing a business plan to support their site selection, using SimplyMap to assist in the analysis. Winners will be announced during ACRA’s Spring 2009 conference, schedule in Las Vegas, NV in May 2009. The competition is co-chaired by Doreen Burdalski of Albright College, Carol Kaufman-Scarborough of Rutgers University and Hong Yu of Ryerson University.
