The Centurion-based research company, Consulta Research, founded in 1999 by Prof Adré Schreuder, has opened a Cape Town office. Its growing base of clients in Cape Town and the increase in new business opportunities prompted this move.

The intention of this expansion is increase the service to the existing client base, by having resources closer at hand and to grow the client portfolio by taking advantage of the potential to service other Cape based companies and industries with their research requirements.

Pieter van Heerden (senior client director) and Chris de Lange (client director) are the main representatives servicing the Cape region with the support of the head office and in-house call centre. Currently Business Enterprises, at the University of Pretoria, has a 33% equity share in the company.
