About us

We are a team of foodies with wide food industry experience, a broad range of influential media contacts and strong relationships with food writers, features editors, Influencers, journalists and digital content creators across all media channels.

Christopher Price started Food Marketing in 2004, as he realised there was no PR, social or digital advertising agency specialising in the food sector.

For the last nineteen years, our team has worked with small to multinational food companies providing specialist services across both retail and foodservice sectors. Our team has a strong understanding of digital and social media trends, original content creation, cost-efficient use of traditional media and established relationships with many Influencers, across multiple areas of interest (we have two hundred Influencers on our contact list).

Our in-house team combines different strengths and complementary backgrounds to deliver the best services and solutions to our clients. To complement our in-house team, we count on great collaborators to cater to specific projects including design, branding, website development, hosting, photography and food styling.
