Commissioned Alcohol Industry Research & Reports
Turn alcohol industry research questions into clearly sourced reports for businesses, trade organisations and publishers.
The commission
What the work covers
Develop an alcohol industry report around defined research questions using published evidence and authorised project materials. Present findings, methods and limitations clearly, with commissioning arrangements identified appropriately for the intended publication.
How we approach the work
- Agree the research question, audience and intended use.
- Review sources and develop the evidence and report structure.
- Draft findings and complete factual and commissioning disclosure checks.
Scope and boundaries
Methods, source limits and commissioning interests are disclosed appropriately. Findings follow the evidence without a predetermined commissioned conclusion, with promotional publication identified where applicable. Our own policy positions and independent editorial decisions remain separate. Advertising and advertisement features require a prominent advertising label where applicable; identifying a commissioner or sponsor alone does not replace that label.

Scope and independence
Lobbying and representation before public authorities are delivered directly by Alcohol Ltd within the UK and only in relation to UK public bodies. We do not undertake or arrange lobbying of foreign governments, legislatures, regulators or international public bodies, directly, remotely or through intermediaries.
International work covers research, commercial analysis, media, publishing and private-sector trade event support. It excludes campaigns to influence non-UK public decisions, representation to non-UK public authorities and arranging others to provide those services.
Commissioned or promotional content identifies the commissioning relationship and advertising status where applicable. Evidence, rights, subscriber permissions and measurement methods are agreed for the intended use. Search work follows relevant platform policies; rankings, traffic and AI citations are not guaranteed.
Client approval concerns commissioned deliverables and factual checks. Editors retain responsibility for independent publication, corrections and removal decisions. A commercial commission does not buy favourable independent coverage, the suppression of legitimate reporting, editorial endorsement or control over our policy positions. Confidential journalistic sources are not made available through commercial client approval.
Our regulated editorial material follows the Editors' Code of Practice, including accuracy, distinguishing fact from opinion and conjecture, privacy and timely corrections with due prominence. IPSO regulates editorial material within its remit; it does not approve our consultancy, research, PR or lobbying services. Advertising is clearly identified where applicable.
Appointments require an agreed written brief and checks on the client, conflicts, sanctions and any applicable registration, disclosure, data-use and permission requirements before work begins. Scope, fees and responsibilities are agreed separately, subject to our service and jurisdictional terms.
