Who we work with
EACH CLIENT, EACH MARKET AND EACH SECTOR OR SUB-SECTOR IS DIFFERENT. This understanding is evident in the way we work with our clients.
PRIVATELY OWNEDinternational, national and
local businesses
CONSULTING AND RESEARCH COMPANIES
STOCK LISTEDnational and
multi-national companies
GOVERNMENT BODIESincluding commercial departments,
consulates, etc.
We understand that budgets and resource availability differ from client to client. That’s why we have a range of solutions ranging from location tests and mystery shopping, through to quick consulting and comprehensive long-term consultancy projects that require setting up temporary call centres and research times.
We know from many years of experience that, depending on their size and struc-ture, different clients have different expectations, different stakeholders to satis-fy, and different compliance requirements. Our knowledge of working in both the public and private sector helps us to help you satisfy each of these requirements and expectations.

ReferencesWE HAVE A STRONG TRACK RECORD OF HELPING OUR CLIENTS ACHIEVE THEIR BUSINESS OBJECTIVES.
Through research findings, we were provided with valuable information on the current market situation, competitive envi-
ronment and customer demand. This research gives us a stable foundation for further growth on the Baltic market.”
We are highly satisfied with the research EMBS Group carried out and the result exceeded our expectations, which is especially impressive considering constant changes on the market, as well as lack of reliable data, making the study and analysis a very challen-ging task.”
EMBS specialists proved themselves to be highly qualified individuals, who possess all the
essential skills and tools. The company’s analysts have a deep understanding of the market, which ensured collaboration on all stages of research.”
I asked for a support to explore supply base in CEE and because of this we had the opportunity to work with Metodija and his colleagues. He was very professional and ready also to play together with us in the arena. The results he provided were excellent and now we continue to use the output of his con-sultancy with very good results. He also was able to build an effective and excellent team spirit … in case we have new projects he'll be the first we'll look for a support.”
I had the pleasure to work with Stathis as part of a key project for our European business. I found him to be a consummate professional
with a detailed knowledge of the region, which enabled him to quickly and effectively deliver the results we were looking for. He is a team player who worked well with our local team and was also willing to go the extra mile when the project so required. I would have no hesitation in seeking his advice and support in the future.”
In the course of our collaboration, EMBS showed advanced expertise in market research methodology,
knowledge of information sources and consistent elabo-ration of all the details on our technical assignment.”
On behalf of everyone involved from our side, I would like to thank you once again for such a great result.
After being able to go through the report, we can say that you have covered our expected scope very well.”
We are very happy with the way this project was going.Delivery: you provided material and information as requested, you understood the subject matter as you were really digging deep. You played quite an important role during the workshop. Very responsive: you met the final deadlines, worked very hard, very flexible and approachable.... very open and happy to go the extra mile. Project management: very good, you kept us informed about the progress, advised on certain constraints, really tried to help when/if required. We will certainly consider you for any future project.”
