Services

From field data to board-ready intelligence

Six core practices, designed and fielded by our own research teams across the GCC.

All services

Market research & business intelligence

Bottom-up market sizing, market share, and competitive analysis built from field-verified store-level data. We size demand, test feasibility, and shape expansion strategy across the GCC — starting with Kuwait and Saudi Arabia — so every decision rests on evidence, not estimates.

Geo-spatial intelligence

Area and site analysis that reads a location the way the market does: trade area dynamics, population profile, competitive saturation, and host real estate characteristics — combined into clear recommendations on where to open, where to expand, and where to hold.

Real estate services

Gap analysis, tenant mix, and leasing strategy for commercial properties. We identify underserved categories, benchmark lease rates by location and property type, and design tenant mixes that reduce vacancies and lift the performance of malls, towers, and retail strips.

Umbrella subscriptions

Global Markets' flagship business intelligence platform and its suite of apps. Four interconnected pillars — brands, outlets, companies, and real estate — updated daily and traceable to field-validated audits, available as subscriptions for teams that need the GCC market on demand.

Data cleaning

Regional data standards for Arabic and English records, applied through a four-step framework. We clean and structure commercial datasets so names, addresses, and entities resolve consistently across both languages — ready for analysis, integration, and reporting.

Retainer & managed services

Ongoing advisory paired with real estate execution. A retained team carries decisions from analysis to action — continuous market counsel for your leadership and hands-on delivery of leasing and property mandates, without rebuilding context on every engagement.
