ABOUT EMPRICA

Local understanding.
Research with purpose.

Emprica Consulting Ltd is a women-led, Africa-rooted Market & Social Research firm combining technical expertise with practical field capability.

We help organisations understand communities, assess programmes and make informed decisions through research grounded in the realities of each setting.

OUR STORY

Emprica has grown from its beginnings in Kenya into a regional research firm, expanding its expertise, field capability and formal presence in South Sudan and Sudan.

Today, we connect research design, field implementation and analysis. Our work spans Market & Social Research, Monitoring, Evaluation & Learning (MEL), Field & Tab, Third-Party Monitoring, Climate & Resilience Research, and Strategic & Evidence Advisory.
