Question

Which real business is at a location, and where does it provide service?

Nodes

Organization; LocalBusiness; Place; Address; Service area; Profile

Relationship sketch

branch → parent organization
business → actual place
service → area served

Evidence inputs

Approved location facts, eligible business profiles, hours, real service coverage, and privacy decisions.

Implementation

Distinguish headquarters, branches, customer-facing premises, mailing addresses, and service areas. Do not derive a physical office from a city page or a travel radius.

Acceptance checks

Each published physical location is real
Service-area claims do not create fictional branches
Sensitive home-address publication is explicitly reviewed

Do not infer

One page for each town is not evidence of one office in each town.

Publication boundary

Public business facts only; avoid unnecessary personal location information.
