How close are these retailers?

How the math works

We measure straight-line distance between mapped store coordinates, not driving distance. Each location in the counted chain appears once, using its nearest comparison store. The percentage uses that chain’s unique mapped locations with valid coordinates.

These are mapped footprints, not guaranteed current national totals. Missing stores or inaccurate coordinates can affect the count, especially near the radius boundary. Natural Grocers coverage is partial. Dataset verification dates: Natural Grocers September 1, 2026; Sprouts August 9, 2026.

Use it to ask a better sales question

Compare units per store per week before and after a launch at nearby stores versus farther-away stores. Account for promotions, pricing and distribution changes. Geographic overlap alone does not establish a sales impact or confirm a brand is stocked at every location.
