Market Research

IC2X provides market research to help you meet corporate growth objectives.  Whether you firm is new to the international market place or looking to expand your market share in existing markets, IC2X can help, both internationally and domestically.

Domestic Market Research

Are you looking to expand in the United State?

IC2X provides the following research services:

Site Selection - Are you interested in establishing a US distribution or manufacturing center, but don't know where to locate?  Using a RPM (Regional Potentiality Module), we will locate the best site for your facility based upon labor costs, availability of raw materials, market access, warehousing and distribution costs and a variety of other factors unique to your situation.  I have previously prepared site selection materials used by American Honda in locating their first production facility in Maysville, Ohio.  IC2X will also negotiate with state and local authorities on your behalf for an extra fee. **
