Can someone help me understand what's going on with one of my stores? I'm getting a message on the home page that my "Level of Service suffers due to insufficient of retail space" while my Occupancy is at 2.24% and I only have 379 customers per week in a 500 sq ft space.
 
That seems like plenty of room, and I assume occupancy is telling me I can have ~6000 customers a week before I'm in trouble, so why am I getting the error?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's this unit?

This is due to having just a high service level, the reason why you only have have a high level and not a very high or elite level of service is due to having 2 departments.
 
This is my unit in lien.

When I switched it to 10k sq m it went to service level low. It sells only 3 items that consume literally no space. Why is this happening?
First 2 departments, I'm guessing the game divides the total space by the number of departments and not total space needed for each. This means in both yours and my shops because they both sell one big item in a separate department (second) it crowds the space given.
 
Try shipping the washers to a warehouse then deleting remaining inventory which will remove the department as well. As long as you ship out first (yellow truck) all you'll lose is selling price. The service level should be updated instantly, if not change locations and back to the original to refresh it, your service level should change.
 
Btw could you post any more questions here

actually it was almost all my units... all except that one in fact. Currently that store is saying "Shop works effectively, but Level of Service suffers due to insufficient number of sellers." even thought I have 7 workers out of a required 6 & Service level is "High".

Those washers are 20% of revenue. Should I really be worried if service is "high"?

How can you see how much space something takes up?

try shrinking departments and / or increasing wages, usually when the store has many product categories this message appears, the less departments the more space for customers to traffic.
