How To Advertise

Q: How can I advertise my company on Foodtrader?

A: In addition to regular listings, we offer customers several ways in which they can draw attention to their products and brands. Foodtrader's Storefront and Banner Ad Programs provide highly effective ways for companies and organizations to reach a highly targeted market.

Q: What is a Storefront?

A: A storefront provides a company an online presence within Foodtrader's site, allowing suppliers to present, distinguish, brand and sell their products in the global market. A Storefront is a 98x45 pixel ad that represents a 5 page custom-designed catalog within the Foodtrader site. The catalog creates maximum exposure as well as e-commerce capabilities. Storefronts may contain corporate information, product descriptions, photographs and product prices.

Q: What is a Banner?

A: A Banner is similar to a Storefront, except that it provides a 98x45 pixel ad that links to a 1-page advertisement. The ad promotes your company within a select area of the site, gaining the ability to target your message to people who are searching for a specific product.
