International Potato Tour (IPT) 2026
Potatoes.News invites your company to join the International Potato Tour (IPT) as a strategic partner for 2026.
The International Potato Tour is a global documentary and field-research initiative dedicated to the potato industry. In 2026, our expedition will document production, agronomic technologies, storage, processing, and innovation across Russia, the CIS, Europe, Asia, and Africa. We showcase the real people and technologies shaping the market.
Why Partner with IPT?
We offer a Trust-Based Marketing format. Unlike traditional advertising, we integrate your brand into high-value professional content that the industry actually watches and trusts.
1. Direct Access to Decision-Makers (B2B)
Our audience consists strictly of industry professionals: growers, seed producers, processors, equipment suppliers, traders, and researchers. You reach your target client directly without paying for irrelevant traffic.
2. Evidence-Based Credibility
We film on location—in real fields, storage facilities, and factories. Demonstrating your product in actual working conditions creates credible, evidence-based content that performs significantly better than studio advertising.
3. Evergreen Content Strategy
Standard banner ads disappear when the budget runs out. Our content remains online permanently. Reports, articles, and videos are indexed by search engines, continuing to generate leads and brand awareness throughout 2026 and beyond.
4. Multi-Platform ROI
A single filming session provides content for our entire ecosystem: full-length documentaries for YouTube, short viral clips for social media, and in-depth articles for the website.

- Website: Potatoes.News (Global reach)
- Telegram: PotatoesNews (Real-time industry analytics)
