What the numbers show
By outlet count, the United States is the fourth largest of our markets.
The United States ranks third of our markets for outlets with 100+ public reviews, at 60% (median 37%).
Outlets are spread out: the 20 largest metro areas hold 23% together, so most outlets sit outside the big cities.
Using these numbers
Pair visits with group deals
Chains and groups run more of the market in the United States than in most countries (69% independent, median 95%), so a few head-office agreements can open many doors at once.
Plan beyond the big cities
Most outlets in the United States sit outside its largest metro areas, so a plan that stops at the big cities leaves most doors uncovered.
Lead with one pitch
Restaurants make up 60% of all outlets, so one well-built pitch for them reaches most of the doors in the United States.
