Opportunities in Fine Food Digest
Essential reading for independent food and drink retailers, Fine Food Digest is the ideal publication to promote your range, highlight a new launch or simply introduce retailers to your business.
Our engaged audience of 5,500 across the independent food and drink sector rely on us to bring them the latest industry news, product launches and advice to help them run their businesses.
Each of our ten issues has several opportunities to get in front of buyers, owners and retail workers who will be ordering and selling your products.
We cover the full life cycle of businesses: from start-up delis coming to us for advice before they open, to established multi-site businesses looking to upskill their staff and refresh their range. We’ll work with each of our advertisers to advise on how best to reach your target retailer audiences.
