Customer Insight
There are many ways of measuring the what and the how of consumer behaviour – but to understand the why, you need to speak to your customers. This is our unrivalled strength. Work with us to access direct insights from the people you need to hear from in your target locations, in the UK or globally.
Primary research has been a CACI expertise for decades: we have established relationships with dozens of retail and high street landlords in key UK locations. We’ve conducted over a million customer interviews across more than 300 locations in the UK and Europe. With our multi-sector knowledge and access to unique lifestyle datasets, we can combine user and customer research with consumer data insight to build a clear and detailed picture of the opinions, preferences and spending potential of your target audience.
