About Us

“We are a small, but highly successful company offering a
wide range of services to the building and building
supplies industry. We work with the builders themselves
and with product manufacturers and service suppliers,
providing an invaluable insight into their target
markets”.

Focal Research specialises in providing information to
the construction industry. We ‘sieve’ huge amounts of
data our clients never see, in order to provide them
purely with what they should see and take notice of. The
information, which covers the Social Housing, House
Building, and Education sectors, is housed
in a database format to make it easier to review. |
Since 1991, we have established an excellent reputation for
providing information and advice that is relevant,
accurate and up to date.
|
|
We also offer tailored training sessions for companies
selling into the Social Housing sector, Sales &
Marketing
advice, bespoke research and specialist literature
services. |
