About BAR

Our History:
Brooks Adams Research was initially a part of SB&A (formerly, Sharon Brooks & Associates – a full-service advertising, marketing and public relations agency since 1981). Brooks Adams Research was launched as a company in late 1997 in response to the rapid growth and success of the market research division of SB&A.

Our company is located in Richmond, Virginia. There are more than 100 sunflowers in the office building – carved on the staircase, in the glass and in the brick. And because of their influence, a sunflower was incorporated into the design of our company logo.

Our Vision:
