Centre for Consumption Insights

The Centre for Consumption Insights (CCI) builds on the research excellence and international, interdisciplinary networks of colleagues in the Department of Marketing at Lancaster University. The CCI has expertise in all aspects of consumption studies, from consumer culture theory and the sociology of consumption, markets & marketing, through to experimental work in the domain of consumer psychology. Our mission is to produce cutting-edge theory and actionable insights on a wide range of societal concerns that relate to consumers, consumption, and consumer culture. We work with colleagues from other institutions, policymakers, and corporate partners to identify pressing problems that can form the basis of research projects, public debate, and applicable solutions.
