San Francisco, CA, May 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
ChefsFeed, a media company connecting consumers to the best of everything food, has opened its platform to beverage professionals, creating the opportunity for a perfect pairing to the thousands of chefs who already make up its dynamic contributor community. Along with this new beverage vertical extension, ChefsFeed is adding 14 new markets, now reaching over 70 destinations across North America.
ChefsFeed publishes credible media with the attitude and authenticity savvy consumers crave, through its website, free iOS and Android apps, and TV Network (Apple TV, Roku). ChefsFeed creates exclusive videos and stories with the best voices in food and beverage, and provides diners with a new way to discover where to eat and drink based on expert recommendations.
“Welcoming top beverage professionals is a natural step to take towards our vision of expanding our expert-powered media platform,” said Rich Maggiotto, CEO of Credible, Inc., ChefsFeed’s parent company. “Broadening our contributor community has been one of our most requested features, both from consumers who want us to build a better resource for finding great spots, and from our community of chefs who have been advocating for the addition of the killer somms, beverage directors, and mixologists they work with every day.”
“We have great respect for the creativity of bartenders, sommeliers, craft brewers, artisanal coffee roasters, and their peers. We're honored that thousands of these pros want to work with our team to develop meaningful content and educate the world about their craft," he added.
