(Incorporated in Ireland)

We provide brands, retailers and other clients a holistic view of consumer shopping behavior globally to drive mission-critical strategic and operating decisions and facilitate better economic outcomes.

Our Company

We are a leading global consumer intelligence company positioned at the nexus of brands, retailers and consumers. We manage a comprehensive and integrated ecosystem – The NIQ Ecosystem – which combines proprietary data, best-in-class technology, human intelligence, and highly sophisticated software applications and analytics solutions. Our unified, artificial intelligence and machine learning (“AI”)-powered technology platform aggregates, harmonizes and enriches vast amounts of global consumer shopping data from a myriad of diverse sources, generates rich, proprietary reference data and metadata, and provides a global, omnichannel view of consumer shopping behavior – The Full View. Our global reach spans over 90 countries covering approximately 85% (percent) of the world’s population, more than half the world’s gross domestic product (“GDP”) and more than $7.2 trillion in global consumer spend as of December 31, 2024. Leveraging our strong NIQ brand, long-term client relationships, global scale, proprietary technology, and extensive data and insights, we are positioned as a global leader in measuring, analyzing, and predicting consumer behavior in the fast-moving consumer goods (“FMCG”), tech and durables (“T&D”) and other verticals in which we operate.

 As of December 31, 2024, we served approximately 23,000 clients worldwide, ranging from multi-national brands and retailers to SMB. Our clients include approximately half of the Fortune 500 and nearly 80% of the Fortune 100 companies. Over decades, we have grown alongside some of the world’s largest consumer brands. For example, Coca-Cola has been a client for 100 years, Colgate for over 80 years, (and) Nestlé for nearly 75 years. We have longstanding relationships with Samsung and Sony in T&D. We also serve new and emerging brands as well, such as Malk, Great Lakes Brewing, SharkNinja and Serenity Kids and collaborate with top U.S. retailers like Target and Walmart, as well as international retailers like ALDI and LIDL.
