Trends show that food and recipe content is hotter than ever, with South Africans finding their flavour in Woolworths TASTE and Food24, says New Media.
The data is in, and it’s safe to say that South Africans are in the kitchen and looking to cooking and food-related media for inspiration. South Africa’s leading content marketing agency, New Media, continues to earn big points in this category.
