Headquartered in Nairobi, the business hub of East Africa, we operate throughout Sub-Sahara Africa with co-ordination offices in Lagos for West Africa and Cape Town for the Southern Africa region.

Our Capabilities

Qualititative

In-depth interviews

Using the latest gadgets we are able to conduct low, middle and high level in-depth interviews that are recorded and later transcribed. We have a team of experienced moderators working under the qualitative research manager to ensure quality in data execution.

Mini and Full focus groups

We also have the capability to conduct mini focus groups (4-6 respondents) as well as full groups (8-12) respondents in any of the locations we cover in Africa. Our experienced moderators working with a team of recruiters, note takers and project managers ensure the projects are carried out to the highest standards.

Focus groups live streaming

We have partnered with Focus Vision to live stream focus group discussions to clients who may not be able to physical attend some of the groups. This ensures that they are not only updated live but can give input as the groups progress.

2-way mirror viewing facility

Enables clients to attend and listen to focus groups, this helps in getting extra insights such as feelings and emotions that may not necessarily be derived from transcripts and summarized reports.

Online Focus Groups

Quantitative

CAPI - Computer Aided Paper Interview

Using Android Tablets, we have developed capacity to collect vast amounts of live streamed data using tablets, this not only ensure quality in data collection but quick turn around as well. We currently have over 200 5-7 inch android tablets. Market Pulse currently uses SurveyToGo for data collection in most of its markets of operation.

CATI - Computer Aided Telephone Interview

With a database of over 5 million numbers and 10 calling booths offsite, we are able to conduct CATI surveys giving a quick turn around and a lower cost than the traditional PAPI system.

PAPI - Paper interviews

We still also have capabilities for paper based qualitative interviews especially for very remote regions. This is supported by a state of the art data entry center based in Nairobi. PAPI is normally used in regions with no or unstable power and internet connection. CAPI is still the preferred method of data collection across our markets.
