WELCOME TO BCR

We are a market research institute that is dedicated to helping you develop big ideas for your brands and products. Our research toolkit is based on a behavioural principle that we call “2 second seduction.” This is the amount of time that consumers take to decide whether or not to consider your offer. If you need a new product concept, pack design or piece of communication BCR helps you bring together the visual, semantic and narrative codes that win consumer hearts in just one glance.

What clients have said about us

"A great experience, great team, great results. Getting new insight from consumers is not difficult if you know how to get them. The FOPPER was a great tool to get to a fantastic idea that travelled globally in a very short time. Recommended."

Vincenzo Riili (Senior Global Innovation Manager Sunlight)
Unilever
Frank Hauerken

"For me BCR is top of mind when it comes to combining strategic thinking with original creative ideas. Deeper insight and better ideas - that´s what strategy needs most."

Frank Hauerken (General Manager Germany, Austria, Switzerland)
Ciba Vision (now Alcon Pharma)

"BCR‘s set of concept development tools provided a powerful source of inspiration and contributed to the development of a leading edge product mix."

Giovanni Valentini (Brand Development Director Dove Global)
Unilever

" Working with BCR on our White Now project was a fantastic journey. BCR was involved all the way from the beginning, from crafting the concept, coming up with the fantastic name and developing a powerful communication brief which was based on the Cinderella effect. This brief inspired our agency to come up with a great piece of advertising. The results of White Now so far speak for themselves: it is on its way to become one of the biggest Oral Care launches ever."

Patrick Albrecht (Former Global Development Oral Care)
Unilever
