A global packaging company wished to understand the potential for packaging of products sold in the perimeter of grocery stores including fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and, deli and bakery. PMG designed and executed a large-scale research project identifying key trends and prioritizing specific opportunities for the client.

PMG's B2B market research approach entailed reaching out to and connecting with the competitor's highest level executives to gain a deeper understanding of the company's R&D strategy than could be derived from publicly available sources. PMG's analysts, well experienced in contacting senior level managers and engaging them in conversation, were utilized to develop a thorough understanding of the client's major competitor. The competitive intelligence gained from the conversations with key executives proved to be valuable insight into the competitor's value position in the market.

Through custom market research, PMG assessed the current hermetic compressor market in juxtaposition with the company's net position on each product and service attribute.
