At Across, we are specialists in market research projects in Brazil, Mexico and other Latin American countries.

We have our own network of native, local-based researchers to ensure complete geographical coverage with a presence in every Brazilian state and most Spanish speaking Latin American countries.

Building up on Iris Griffiths’s 28 years of experience working in these countries, we have a deep understanding of the culture and psyche of the people and markets we work with. This gives us the confidence to say we provide research findings with an extra dimension. Accurate, thorough and insightful. Research beyond the expected.
