What Our Clients Say About Us
"I am very satisfied with YCP Solidiance's work on competitors benchmarking analysis project in the Automotive Glass industry. The team fully understood the project background and objectives, and their output surely met our expectations. Although there were some challenges in collecting detailed information given this is a highly specialized industry, their analytical framework and logical approach made this project a great success. I also found the discussion with their local consultants very valuable. This gave me lots of useful insights to pursue the project. I would like to work with YCP Solidiance on my next project."
Senior Sales & Marketing Center Manager Automotive Glass Division
Asahi Glass Group
"During the course of the process, I found YCP Solidiance highly capable to support Toyota to better understand “ASEAN countries”. We usually work with Japanese consulting company and from their report, we can be a “book smart” but can’t have a clear picture of what’s going on in the real market. The project with YCP Solidiance brought us “real market experience”. YCP Solidiance's local consultants got their hands dirty in the marketplace with me. This approach enabled me to understand critical consumer insights behind data. I found it very valuable experience. Thank you very much."
