2015 will mark a new dawn for Grain & Feed Milling Technology. Over the years that Perendale Publishers have been custodian of the longest standing milling industry magazine in the world, we have consistently strived to move with the times and ensure that we are an up to date publication for the industry globally.
The magazine has undergone several name changes over the 124 years we have been serving the industry, and now we have decided it is time, to once again re-brand the magazine to reflect the huge progress and wider focus that the magazine has achieved over the last decade.
Over the time that Perendale has been publishing GFMT, we have seen the focus of the magazine grow wider, as we talk to more experts from across the globe, about more topics from a greater number of countries. The industry is constantly changing, and so we must adapt with it, to ensure we are always at the forefront of reporting these developments to our readers.
Along with the change from Grain & Feed Milling Technology to "Milling and Grain", we will also be making another important step. The magazine will now move from the bi-monthly format that has served us so well in the past - to a monthly magazine.
We will also be publishing six dedicated issues each year in Spanish, Arabic and Turkish.
GFMT has been an international publication since 1946, indeed, almost 70 years later, in 2014 we are read in over 132 countries around the world, and support the industry at over 40 trade shows and conferences each year.
With this in mind, it is my pleasure to announce that with the launch of our re-branded title "Milling and Grain" we are also opening a North American division that will be headed up by long time industry expert, Mark Cornwell.
Mark has been working in the milling industry for over 20 years, and is well known to many of the companies operating within it. Mark joins the Perendale team from his position as Sales Director at Wold Grain, so is ideally placed to help us strengthen our position in the North American industry and beyond.

Having spent over 20 years in the Milling and Grain industry, I can honestly say it is more than a job for me. I count my blessings daily that I work in an industry with many of my greatest friends and extended family.
Over the years I have listened carefully to those I work with, and wherever possible, I have effected change. As I sit here writing this opening editorial piece, I find myself in the coveted position of Managing Director and Co-Owner of the oldest and most established Milling and Grain magazine in the world.
To be working with a team as passionate as myself about the industry and focused on doing what is best for the customer is extremely exciting. As a global magazine I have a global team, with offices in South America, Africa, India, Australia, China and now North America with myself and Martha. As many of you will know, Martha is my wife and a passionate advocate of the industry. She has accompanied me on many global visits meeting with many significant members of the industry. I know her knowledge of the industry is second to none and her drive and customer focus will ensure this venture is a special one for the advertiser, reader and global team.
I am so excited about the year ahead, and this starts with welcoming you to the first transitional magazine from "Grain & Feed Milling Technology" to the newly branded "MILLING and GRAIN".
This edition and the next in December will see the transition over to MILLING and GRAIN setting the platform for 12 informative editions for 2015, with 18 further editions, 6 in Spanish, 6 in Arabic and 6 in Turkish. These are not one off editions, but rather regular updates in key languages in locations where there is a growth in the Milling and Grain industry.
Don't forget, look out for the International Milling Directory, again the most recognised and established Directory in the industry. It is free to be in and free to list your equipment technical data. Its a tool for the industry and used by millers all over the world.
With all my knowledge and experience in the industry I am confident that we will have the most widely distributed publication in the industry and our team will visit more exhibitions, conferences and companies first hand than any one else.
Keep a look out for our team, as I am sure you will bump into one of them somewhere around the globe this year.
Enjoy this publication.
