Export Marketing Research Scheme (EMRS)

This scheme is targeted at successful exporters who consider their entry into new markets with care.

It offers companies the facility to carry out export marketing research to obtain intelligence on topics such as:

  • Market size and segmentation
  • Regulations and legislation
  • Customer needs, usage and attitudes
  • Distribution channels
  • Trends
  • Competitor activity, strategy and performance

The International Trade Team, in cooperation with UK Trade & Investment, provides a subsidised service for UK exporters. Companies with fewer than 250 employees may be eligible for a grant of up to 50 percent of the agreed cost of market research projects.
