THE ISHCOM ADVANTAGE

Our core brand, Ontario Restaurant News celebrates its 22nd year while Pacific/Prairie Restaurant News begins its 14th year of superior coverage in Western Canada. Our newest publication, Atlantic Restaurant News, remains the only food service publication serving the growing Atlantic Canada Market. It is now entering its 9th year.

Using an outside editorial advisory board of industry experts who meet frequently, we strive for a strong editorial approach. We offer national coverage with regional focus.

In March, 2004, Ishcom added a fourth magazine to our hospitality industry lineup to serve the accommodation sector Canadian Lodging News.

Consider:

• We are the only magazine to exhibit at the B. C. Restaurant Show, ARFEX Show, B. C. Hotel Show, CENTREX, APEX, Canadian Food & Beverage Show and HostEx. 
• We are the only publication that gives bonus distribution at these shows. 
• Our targeted approach offers our advertisers the largest audited circulation in Canada. Readership and competitive studies indicate we have more than 4.9 readers per copy.
• We don’t just sit in Toronto, or cover the major provincial capitals. Our staff are in the field, from Vancouver to Montreal, Halifax to Edmonton. We get to Fort Frances, the Queen Charlotte Islands, Arnold's Cove, Newfoundland and beyond.

ADVERTORIALS

We don't confuse editorial and advertising.

Advertorials tell your story better than ads, and are compelling, targeted and affordable. Ideal for product launches, positioning and special corporate highlights, they also make great sales material for direct mail and trade shows.

Supplements are perfect for event management and corporate positioning, as well as being effective communications vehicles.
