Woman: Hello, Mike, have you got a moment?
Man: Sure, what is it? The location?
Woman: Yes, we can’t put it off any longer.
Man: Hm, especially as we chose the site for the new warehouse last night. We need to get organised.
Woman: Exactly. We need a decision today. Where should the discount shop be, then?
Man: Well, not too close to our existing branches, that’s for sure. I think it’d better be in the out- of-town retail centre.
Woman: I know that’s easier for customers, but the business park, which is the other out-of- town site, would be better for deliveries, which is important.
Man: But the trend is towards more and more people using the retail centre, isn’t it?
Woman: Well, the survey we did shows people will visit the business park if we open there.
Man: Really? I wasn’t expecting that. Is it because we produce specialist goods? Does that make a difference?
Woman: Yes.
Man: Are there any local grants available?
Woman: Not as such, but there are tax benefits if we take on premises in the business park.
Man: Right. That’s settled, then. How about...
