Manchester Field Firms Form New Venture

In the UK, Manchester-based sister agencies Acumen Fieldwork, Aspect Viewing Facilities and Research Opinion have hooked up to form a new umbrella organisation called Fuller Research Group, offering a complete range of recruitment, fieldwork and viewing facilities.

Acumen supplies worldwide fieldwork services, including qual, quant and medical fieldwork and recruitment, plus data-checking service Acumonitor which screens respondents and weeds out frauds and repeats. Aspect offers focus group facilities in central Manchester and Cheshire, while Research Opinions recruits market research respondents across the UK.

Ali Pugh (pictured), Strategic Business Manager for the group explains: 'The Fuller Research Group is really about us consolidating and strengthening our culture. It signifies our ambition to ensure we are with the best in the industry and we are very excited about using this opportunity to further our success.'
