A new internet search engine has been launched by Australian Food News and it’s called the Research Wizard! This new search engine is Australian based and designed by food industry professionals to search the internet only for information relevant to the Australasian food industry.

The Research Wizard can find:

• Companies in the food industry and companies that supply the food industry which are listed in the Australian Food News Industry Directory;
• News items published on Australian Food News in the past 6 months;
• Information on food laws, regulations, standards, user guides and commentary;
• Health, nutrition and medical research publications from around the world;
• Background information on market trends, statistics, consumer information;
• Food allergies information; and
• Recipes and food ideas.

The great advantage of the Research Wizard over traditional search engines is that you know that the searches you conduct will return relevant results and the categories of results are neatly packaged into individual sections so after you get your results, you can jump directly to the section that gives you the kind of information you’re after. No more trawling through 100 million generic results to find one document!

If there’s additional information relevant to the food industry that you would like to find using the Research Wizard, the team at Australian Food News will even take your request, find the information and make it searchable for you!
