Market Research Agency Toronto

Research expertise for Canada's financial capital

Kadence is set up for research in Toronto because the decisions our clients are making here are rarely one-dimensional. A study that works in the city has to speak to domestic Canadian realities and the cross-border thinking that shapes so many Toronto boardrooms, and our project leads design accordingly.

Toronto programmes draw on areas like category and customer understanding, concept and proposition development, brand and communications testing, and activation work for teams that have to use findings rather than shelve them, alongside the full breadth of Kadence's research capability. The exact mix depends on where a decision ultimately gets made, whether that sits in a Toronto head office, a dual Toronto and New York structure, or a wider North American programme.

Our Toronto work supports clients across sectors ranging from financial services anchored by Bay Street and the Big Five banks through to technology, media and entertainment, retail, life sciences and insurance, with full-service projects and specialist fieldwork sitting alongside each other. Fieldwork extends across the Greater Toronto Area into Mississauga, Markham and Hamilton, and cross-border into the US Northeast where a Toronto-led programme needs that reach. We weave the specific sectors and geographies into each design rather than applying a standard sample plan.

With over 30 years of experience, Kadence has partnered with some of the world's most recognisable brands. For Toronto specifically, that experience lands in a market that operates as both Canada's own commercial centre and a regular gateway for US brands entering the country, and research here has to read both roles at once.
