Insights to help your business

We can research and produce free, tailored insights on request and deliver them to you within five days.

Our free, tailored research includes:
Competitor insights
One key type of research we can offer is competitor insights. We can help you get ahead of your competition by providing the latest insights on their market share, previous year’s turnover, how their customers view them and what new products they’ve recently launched.
We have a range of resources at our disposal to bring that data to you and boost your competitive edge. Get our insight on:
- Competitor market segments
- Individual companies
- Financial and credit reports
- Market and news analysis
Industry trends and forecasts
We provide trusted industry research from commercial databases and access to quality information for hundreds of industries covering:
- Market size and forecasts
- Segmentation
- Growth potential
- Competitive landscape
- Drivers, challenges and trends
- Key social, economic, political and technological factors
We can send you the latest research on post-pandemic growth opportunities, as well as reports on the impacts of Covid-19 and other market-shifting events across the globe.
Company reports in your target market
We can provide lists of companies by location, size and industry, to help you identify potential customers, buyers, competitors, partners or investors.
We can also send you in-depth company profiles, including financial information for due diligence checks, as well as generic contact information to make that important first connection.
Consumer demographics
Understanding and predicting customer behaviour has never been more important. We can send you the latest insights on changing consumer preferences and behaviours, including:
- How, when and where they buy
- Branding and customer loyalty
- Effective promotion methods
- Pricing data
Supplier databases
If your supply chain has been affected by recent global events, our specialist supplier databases can help you find local suppliers by industry, size and location, covering:
- Manufacturers
- Distributors
- Service providers
Our supply chain mapping can also help you determine if finding more local suppliers is right for your business. This means more opportunities for Scottish manufacturers and potentially a greener, more sustainable economy.
Finding the right market information is an essential part of developing your approach to selling internationally. To be competitive and succeed in overseas markets you'll need to be able to exploit opportunities while mitigating potential threats.
Our research team is on hand to save you time, money and effort by producing research tailored to your situation. However, if you would like to undertake your own secondary/desk-based research into international markets, we have also produced a guide including some useful tips and resources.
