Global Media plans trade debuts to rival dmg

Business-to-business publisher Global Media Publishing is to launch

two trade food magazines in direct competition to dmg World Media.

Fast Food and Frying Operator and Frozen and Chilled International will

debut in January and will compete with dmg World Media's Fish & Chips

and Fast Food and Frozen & Chilled Foods.

Global Media's newly-formed food division is staffed by former dmg

employees and is headed by sales manager Tony Ropke. There is also a

website - www.gmp.uk.com/food.

Fast Food and Frying Operator will go out to 11,000 fast food operators

and Frozen and Chilled International will go out to 6,000 catering

businesses.

The magazines are targeting a mix of trade display, classified and

recruitment advertising.

In March, Global Media will also debut an annual Frozen and Chilled

International Directory, which is expected to have 32,000 end-users and

will compete with dmg's Frozen & Chilled Foods Yearbook.

Global Media, formed two years ago by its joint managing directors, Neb

Saric and Richard Teasdale, also publishes magazines covering the power

industry, including Worldwide Independent Power and Independent Power

Asia.

Two related exhibitions - the CoGen Expo and On Site Power - are set to

be staged next year.

RE: No room in the UK: can new retailers succeed on the high street?

The OnePoll survey question relating to how people buy electrical products shows four choices which conveniently add up to 100% and I assume means that the respondent had to pick one that best describes how they buy. How about those who start off using the web to research then visit the store to look then go home and then buy online. This is just one of the scenarios missing from the options. One could also consider the use of review sites, speaking to friends etc as part of the process. I also suspect behaviour changes according to the value of the product and relevant in-store promotions, so how one intended to shop may be disrupted by marketing communications. Another point to note is that the shops feature in three of the four options - the majority of buyers have some interaction with the high street even if the purchase is then made online whereas the article pushes the idea that everything has moved online. Online and offline can work together. The other OnePoll survey question about preference for shopping online or in a shop includes Food or Drink. What precisely do we mean by Food or Drink?
