What Matters Most When Opening a Brazilian Restaurant in Baltimore

Site selection sits upstream of every other decision in this business. A high Survivability Score doesn't guarantee success, but a low one is hard to overcome with execution alone. Revenue Capture Score matters more than any other single metric when predicting business outcomes. StreetSpring computes this by projecting the business's market share, which is based on the quality and quantity of primary, secondary, and tertiary competitors. Our forecasting engine processes data from over 24 metro areas covering 180+ million consumers. Strategic clustering can actually boost performance by creating destination zones. StreetSpring leverages exclusive data sources and custom models for these projections.

Consideration	Common pitfall	What to verify before signing
Build-out budget	Underestimating mechanical, electrical, and plumbing — the "hidden" 30-50% of build-out cost.	Get 3 quotes from licensed contractors and pad budget by +20% for surprises. Confirm landlord TI allowance in writing.
Parking & visibility	Storefront looks great from the sidewalk but is invisible from the road.	Drive past at 30 mph from both directions. Count street parking + nearest paid lot capacity at peak hours.
Permits & licensing	Assuming a 30-day permit timeline, hitting 90+ days, paying rent on a non-operating storefront.	Call the local zoning office before signing. Confirm your use is already permitted; if not, factor a 2-3 month variance timeline.

This can be summarized as:

Revenue Capture Score = Projected Market Share × Forecasted Spend on Specific Business
