Top Stores by Revenue

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Write a query to find the top three performing store locations in a specific region based on total revenue.

Use the stores and sales tables, with Midwest as the region. Stores with a NULL region are ignored.

Output

  1. One row per qualifying store, with store_id, store_name, total_revenue, and revenue_rank.
  2. Return only the three highest-revenue stores, breaking ties by the smaller store_id.
  3. Order rows by total_revenue descending, then store_id ascending.
