What is the Food Travel Monitor frequency?

How often is the Food Travel Monitor published?

The last Food Travel Monitor was published in January 2020 and included a special COVID update that was published in July 2020. The previous Food Travel Monitor was published in June 2016.  Beginning with 2020, we standardized on a quintennial (every 5 years) schedule.

Did you know that the World Food Travel Association has been behind every major food tourism study conducted in the world? Our past research reports were published in 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2020.

We listen to you and what you'd like to see in future editions of the Monitor. If you have suggestions for the study or are interested in sponsoring a future research project, please get in touch.
