GfK ist das größte deutsche Marktforschungsinstitut, derzeit weltweit die Nummer fünf der Branche. GfK ist seit März 2017 im mehrheitlichen Besitz (96,7 %) des Investmentfonds Acceleratio Capital N.V., einer Holdinggesellschaft des amerikanischen Private-Equity-Konzerns Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. Das Unternehmen erhebt die Einschaltquoten für das Fernsehen in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland. Die Gemeinde Haßloch diente von 1986 bis 2021 als durchschnittlicher Ort als Testmarkt für das Instrument GfK BehaviorScan, mit dem vor allem die Wirkung von Fernsehwerbung untersucht und die Neueinführung von Produkten simuliert wurde. Vom Unternehmen wird unter anderem auch der GfK-Konsumklimaindex errechnet.
