Consumers Are Seeking Value and Experience

Year-over-Year Visit Growth for the Top Gainers, Aug '25 to Jul '26 — Total Visits (All Stores) vs Per Venue (Same-Store)

Top 10 on this metric (shade = growth) Grew but outside the top 10

Total visits = raw chain foot traffic, which includes newly opened stores. Per venue = same-store, comparing only locations open 13+ months in both years, so it isolates per-location performance. Purple marks a top-10 finish on that metric; gray means the chain grew but ranked outside the top 10. Placer 100 Retail Index; trailing 12-month periods.
