FOOD NETWORK LAUNCHES NEW "DISCOVER FOOD NETWORK" CHANNEL ON SNAPCHAT

Iconic snack brand RITZ Crackers joins as first advertising partner

NEW YORK - January 27, 2015 - Food Network is launching a new global service on social messaging app Snapchat, enabling users to experience a trusted and authentic daily selection of curated food-centric mobile content. Designed specifically to appeal to Snapchat's core audience of social media-savvy millennials, the Discover Food Network channel on Snapchat provides a fun way for users to explore high quality food-related content on their smart phones. The service, which launches today, will be available to Snapchat's millions of dedicated users around the world.

"Food Network has led the dialogue around food for more than two decades, informing and entertaining passionate and engaged fans, and we are excited to bring it to the Snapchat platform," says Brooke Johnson, President of Food Network & Cooking Channel. "Audiences are more food-conscious than ever before and the Discover Food Network channel on Snapchat will provide users with the great content they love, designed specifically for their mobile devices."

Discover Food Network on Snapchat will reflect everything that Food Network fans love most about the brand. Both video and flat content will be curated into a gorgeous authentic food experience, optimized specifically for the mobile platform. With daily offerings of seasonal and topical food themes, tips and recipes, cooking basics, food news, and recurring regular snaps such as Meatless Mondays and Dinner in 10, users will be able to literally hold the best of what Food Network offers in their hand.

Users can tap on a channel and swipe left to flip through each channel's daily edition, containing five to ten stories selected for the service by the Food Network team.

As well as being an engaging new channel for young food fans, Discover Food Network on Snapchat will provide a new opportunity for advertisers to reach engaged young people who love food. In partnership with MediaVest, Mondelez International's RITZ Crackers brand has already signed up to be the launch advertising partner on the Discover Food Network platform in the United States, extending the reach of its current game day campaign to users on Snapchat.

"Food Network already provides advertisers with a rich and engaging environment to reach young people through its linear and on-demand programming, and its digital footprint makes it the leading online destination for food among millennials," says Ann Lundberg, senior vice president of digital ad sales at Scripps Networks Interactive. "Food Network's channel on Snapchat enables iconic brands such as RITZ Crackers to reach even more young consumers on another emerging platform in new and exciting ways."
