Brand Partnerships

Make your brand part of a discovery route.

DadaGourmet is where people land while deciding where to go: looking for a venue, planning a route, reading a city guide, checking the event calendar. Your brand can be visible here — but only clearly labelled and never mixed into editorial content.

Ways to Work Together

One of four routes

Not an off-the-shelf package list: we start from whichever fits you, and write the scope and duration together.

City guide partnership

Destinations, tourism bodies and local government

Accompanying the making of a city or region food guide. Venue selection stays with the editors; the partnership supports producing and announcing the guide.

LabellingA clear notice on the guide page
Editorial decisionOurs, and out of scope

Route sponsorship

Automotive, fuel, accommodation and food brands

Standing behind an itinerary built with Dada Route: a city route, a road route, or a theme or season route. Choosing the stops is the editors' job, not the sponsor's.

DurationLimited to the route's publication period

Event partnership

Festival, fair and event organisers

Getting the event into the calendar with correct details, connecting it to nearby venues as a day route, and opening its page for announcements.

Partnership content

Food, drink and equipment brands

Content the product genuinely stands behind: a tasting, a technique, a producer visit. Not ad copy — sourced and labelled content.

Surfaces

Where a partnership can appear

These are the surfaces that are actually live today. We have no ready-made ad slot inventory with fixed dimensions — each partnership's scope is defined separately and given to you in writing.

Process

How does it work?

1

Request a proposal

Tell us briefly about your brand, the kind of partnership you have in mind and any target city or period.

2

We write down the scope

We separate what is a partnership from what is an editorial decision up front, and put scope, duration and labelling in writing.

3

Go live

The partnership goes live with its label and is listed by name on the Sponsors and Partners page.

Frequently asked

Before you ask for a proposal

Can I get listed by advertising?

No. Listing happens through editorial review and is free; "Add Your Business" is all you need. A partnership is not a way onto the list.

Can I move my venue up the list?

No. Ranking is unaffected by partnerships, and the sponsored-results block was removed from the venue list entirely.

Why are no prices shown?

A figure given before scope and duration are known would not be a real one. Pick the kind of partnership, tell us your goal, and we will prepare the proposal accordingly.

How does sponsored content look?

Always with a clear notice. The label is never tinted to the brand colour or shrunk; a reader sees at a glance what is a partnership.

Which metrics do you report?

Only data we actually collect. We state in writing which measurements are possible along with the scope; we never promise a metric we do not collect.

I run a venue — do I need a partnership?

You do not. Submitting your venue, managing your page and updating your menu and reservation settings are all free.

Put your brand in front of people setting out to explore

Scope, duration and labelling are agreed together — asking for a proposal is free and non-binding.
