What Is Food and Drink Market Research?
Food and drink market research refers to the different forms of qualitative, quantitative approach and desk research that are undertaken to support the development and management of (new) food and beverage products. It includes:
- Evaluating market trends.
- Mapping the competitor landscape.
- Identifying consumer preferences and behaviours.
- Concept development and evaluation.
- Product testing.
- Packaging testing.
- Analysis of International Markets for Global Brands
- Brand tracking and research.

Maximise the Chance of New Product Success
The consensus is that 80-90% of new food and beverage products fail.
Our view is that much of this failure can be avoided if the right research is undertaken at the right time. For example:
- Desk work to understand and map the category and identify gaps.
- In-home, on-the-move and in-store ethnography to understand existing consumer needs and behaviours.
- Concept testing to evaluate the strength and appeal of new propositions.
- Taste testing to fine-tune organoleptic appeal and brand tracking to monitor performance post-launch.
Revitalise an Existing Brand
The continual emergence of challenger brands is often the sign of a healthy marketplace, bringing new ideas, products, tastes – and consumers.
However, this trend can also make existing brands seem tired and less relevant by comparison.
Using Brandspeak’s research expertise you can revitalise your brand through:
- Proposition and positioning re-alignment.
- Recipe enhancement.
- Line extension.
- New message and communications development.
- New packaging development.
Successfully Enter a New Category
You already have a successful brand and product range, and now you want to use your brand’s success and momentum to enter a new category, with a new product.
There are many questions to address, such as:
- What should our new proposition be – and why?
- Will our existing brand equity stretch?
- Will our loyal customers follow us?
- Which new customers should we target as a priority?
- And with which marketing messages?

Hall Tests
Using hall tests, we conduct sensory evaluation of food and beverage products, in a controlled environment - a testing facility or ‘hall’.
During a hall test, participants representing your target audience may be invited to sample several different food or drink products, before feeding back on criteria such as taste, aroma, texture, appearance, and overall liking.
Hall tests are important for validating new concepts, uncovering potential quality improvements, and comparing competitors’ offerings.
In-Home Product Placement Research
To enable you to gain a detailed, contextualised understanding of your product’s performance in the home, we undertake product placement and evaluation.
Before placement, we’ll explore the consumers’ product category attitudes, needs and expectations.
Then, during placement, we’ll undertake quantitative surveys, qualitative communities or interviews, combined with video uploads from the consumer, to determine:
- Why, how, when, where and by whom the product is being used.
- The extent to which it meets requirements on each occasion.
Ethnographic Food and Drink Research
Ethnography is a form of observational research, whereby a mobile phone or video camera is used by the researcher or research subject, to capture category or brand consumption behaviour - in context and in real-time.
It can be undertaken wherever food or drink brands are being considered, purchased or consumed. For example, at home, in a retail outlet, in a bar or even on a flight.
The purpose of ethnographic research is to identify exactly how consumers behave in ‘category moments’, as well as their pain points, unmet needs and opportunities for product improvements or innovation.
