About Us

Who We Are
 

Dick Brunton, Pauline Colmar and John Shanahan's combined wealth of experience, enthusiasm, and a passion for actionable research resulted in the establishment of Colmar Brunton in 1981. This new market research company spawned new brands, a new TV channel, far-sighted government policy and increased market share in many categories.

In 1985 Colmar Brunton established the first privately owned sensory kitchen in NZ and in 1992 established our own recruitment specialists, Consumer Link.

Today Colmar Brunton offers innovative research techniques and actionable research outcomes. We provide a level of service that is unequalled in the industry and perhaps that is why we are the fastest growing market research company in New Zealand.

Our staff have won accolades and awards in both their work and out of work environment. They have developed new research techniques, spoken at international forums, provided advice to CEO's and ministers of government, run marathons and raised families.

But most importantly the company has a spirit that others would pay millions for. And the journey has hardly begun...
