Cibus Link has had a particularly important and evolutionary year, strengthening its mission of reporting and interpreting the evolution of food & beverage and international mass market retail. Today, the magazine is published in five languages: in addition to the four—Italian, English, Spanish, and Chinese—Portuguese has been added in recent months, a strategic choice based on the presence of a significant database of Portuguese and Brazilian buyers.
Brazil is indeed a key market in the international mass retail landscape. It is an extremely attractive country because, across many product categories, dumping is already significantly reduced and, in the near future, thanks to the agreements between the European Union and Mercosur, is on its way to virtually eliminating it. This context makes the dialogue between European industry and South American distribution even more crucial.
The data returned by Google Analytics 4 clearly illustrates the evolution of Cibus Link as a truly international media outlet: English is now the most widely read language, surpassing Italian. Spanish follows, its importance strongly linked to the weekly newsletter dedicated to Latin American markets, which CibusLink regularly sends to a qualified community of over 2.000 buyers and importers in its database. This ongoing editorial activity has strengthened the magazine's positioning in Spanish-speaking countries, making CibusLink a recognized information platform used by buyers from various parts of the world, consistent with its international vocation.
In 2026, Cibus Link will be the protagonist of a major series of international conferences that we are currently planning within TuttoFood Milano. These events will involve major international buyers and have a clear goal: to foster deeper and more qualified networking than traditionally offered by trade shows. The conferences will be accompanied by exclusive food experiences, with select access, designed to allow international buyers and Italian food entrepreneurs to engage in informal conversation, get to know each other, discuss ideas, and build concrete relationships.
At the same time, Cibus Link will be present at the main international trade fairs in the sector, starting with PLMA, at SIAL in Paris and at other key events, to provide its editorial testimony and continue to play its role as the reference media for the international mass food market.
2026 is therefore shaping up to be a highly international year for the magazine, once again under the CibusLink brand, awaiting the return of the Cibus trade fair scheduled for 2027.
