Australian market and opinion specialist Roy Morgan Research is moving to new offices in Kent Street, Sydney on December 8th, after 27 years at its previous location.

New digs for RoyThe firm has been polling in Australia since the early 1940s, when founder Roy Morgan conducted a survey to assess the readership of the Herald and Weekly Times, owned by Sir Keith Murdoch (father of Rupert Murdoch). Since then, the firm has expanded to cover all aspects of market research, with information gathered from personal interviews, telephone, online and self-administered questionnaires.

Roy's son Gary is now Executive Chairman, while the firm is run on a day-to-day basis by CEO Michele Levine. As well as offices in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth, Roy Morgan has overseas bases in New Zealand, Indonesia, the US and the UK.
