About the Consumer Dynamics (cDNA) Series
The cDNA Series
Customers are the lifeblood of any retail business, so understanding or misunderstanding them often marks the difference between success and failure. Luckily, to aid your customer awareness we’ve listened carefully to the views of over 37000 shoppers recording information on what they shop for, where they shop for it and what’s important to them when deciding which stores to use. The results of this intensive and ongoing study is a wealth of data that tracks market trends, company performance and consumer behaviour. This, together with Verdict’s analytical insight, makes the cDNA programme one of the pre-eminent consumer research tools available for UK retail. The cDNA Series is divided into four sub-series; How Britain Shops, Where Britain Shops, The Consumer Satisfaction Index and Consumer Insight Profiles.
