First franchise · Daegu Wolchon Station
June 2021, Wolchon Station, Daegu.
The day we opened our first franchise, we were nervous, but we did not step back.
We welcomed our first customer that day, and people are still waiting for a unit to free up.

The answer is the ground
Not your building. The ground the data picks.
The most common mistake is choosing the wrong ground. Instead of starting from a building you own or a business you like, we first look at what people around the site actually want.
- Start from your building
- Read the area data
- Match each business type
- Recommend the right ground and business
Sample screen. Enter an address and business type to see a real check based on the surrounding trade area.
No location comes for free
Each location makes money differently. Set your goal first, then you can pick the right spot.
Asset-type location
- What it is
- A place where building and land value rise the longer you hold it
- Monthly income
- May be about enough to repay the loan
- When you earn
- Later, when the asset value rises
- Good for
- People who buy a building and hold it long term
Income-type location
- What it is
- A place with strong storage demand where units fill up every month
- Monthly income
- Builds up every month as usage grows
- When you earn
- Now, every month
- Good for
- People who want to grow operating income with several stores
Places that have both are rare. In consultation BOXFUL first asks about your goal, then suggests a location and operating model that fit it.

From empty shop to store
This is how we opened a real store, from measuring to opening day.
Measuring the siteWe measure door widths, floors and column positions and see where lockers will go.

Layout designWe first fit the number of units, walkways and entrance in a 3D layout.
