Samworth Brothers' ROI Budget Under £15k award winning case study
30 Sep 2026 9:00am to 9:45am
How can insight teams move faster than the market and translate emerging trends into tangible business results?
In this session, Samworth Brothers will share how a £6,000 in-house research programme identified the commercial implications of GLP-1 medications before they became a mainstream industry focus.
By combining foresight, consumer closeness, behavioural insight and market modelling, the team created a single version of the truth that influenced product development, retailer strategy and senior leadership decision-making. The work directly contributed to successful product launches, generated a 27x ROI, and positioned Samworth Brothers as a trusted thought leader.
