If you are looking for information on companies, consumers or industries then you will find that information in our market research report databases.

For the UK, we have a subscription to Mintel. Research data has been brought together by analysts at Mintel including  trends, statistics, information on brands and companies, demographic data on a range of sectors.

However, we don't subscribe to all the reports on Mintel. If you find that you cannot access the report you require it may be that you haven't logged in correctly - or our subscription doesn't cover that particular one. Each market research report costs hundreds of pounds so we won't be able to buy them separately for you.

You might also wish to consult another market research type platform called Passport. This is a large global database covering consumer lifestyle reports, future demographics, country profiles, updates on consumer and industry trends, company information, market sizes and economic indicators.

The Newcastle Business and IP Centre based in Newcastle City Library also has online subscriptions which will be useful. They have KeyNote which is another market research platform which you can access free of charge in the library.
