Retail HealthCheck trademark recognised (September 2007)
30 farmers' markets accross Wales take part in our largest regional analysis yet, using the new "Mini HealthCheck" technique! Click here to find out more. (June 07)
New analysis technique introduced: the Quartile Analysis (Feb 07)

Welcome to the Retail HealthCheck Online. Here you'll find information and resources for prospective retail research, or data and reports for existing clients, as well as news and new modular research or analysis techniques to further your understanding of your retail environment.

•

The RHK is a series of 10 market research elements compiled to create a complete picture of any fluid retail environment such as a Farmers' Market or Farm Shop. Any retail environment can be fully measured, analysed and benchmarked. •
The RHK is designed to be as non-intrusive as possible (we hate using clipboards!) and cost-effective. A guide price for a full Retail HealthCheck would be approximately £3,500, but elements can be tailored to suit your needs.

It was developed by Lloyds Europa in 2004 with aid from Oregon State University and was first piloted in Winchester, June ’04 at the FARMA national farmers’ markets conference • •.

Over 70 conducted across GB to date
The biggest & most detailed knowledgebase on farmers' markets in the world!

The data gathered in a RHCK from a single market pinpoints strengths and weaknesses of the market, ways forward, and in the past conclusions and improvements have tended to be drawn by market managers within minutes of seeing the results.
