Market Studies

Market studies are an effective tool used by investors or international brands to assess opportunities for new developments in identified markets. HTI Consulting can tailor their research towards a single market or multiple markets depending on client needs. Where multiple market studies are required our strategy outlines priority investment markets. Key to our investors is understanding market gaps, which brands drive higher levels of demand, key competitors and factors that can drive competitive advantage and the right product concept for different markets.
