What is Food Companion Magazine?

Founded in 2001, a lively, colourful, news driven, content rich food and wine industry journal for busy restaurateurs, hoteliers, executive chef, young apprentices, vendors, food and beverage managers, procurement managers and decision makers within Australia, Asia, USA and European markets. Food Companion International is divided into separate areas in the food and wine industry, including the top end of the market, the mass market and news on food and wine people on the move and also various networking clubs for professionals. It’s a broadly based publication that will cover global food and wine events, including the social scene, all the latest dining success stories, local and international food fairs and exhibitions, population spread, food and wine consumption and innovative ideas to keep you abreast of dining trends.

When do we publish?

We distribute a minimum of four journals per year, work with information providers, notable food industry contributors, vendors, food services associations, international education providers and hotel providers, to communicate what is hot with news, food wine and people. Additionally, we will be producing various special issues, internationally based on changing market trends.

Food Companion International ensures your message reaches its minimum 90,000 readership, and through proactive expansion and distribution strategies, you will not only be exposed to Australasia, but to the rest of the world.

If you are involved in the food and wine industry, this journal is for you!
