A word from our president

2026: Global Acceleration

In 2026, Gault&Millau is changing scale.

Having rebuilt a solid foundation in France and structured a high-performing international network, we are now entering a phase of global acceleration.

Our ambition is clear: to establish Gault&Millau, for the long term, as the international standard for gastronomy and hospitality.

A Strong International Foundation

Over the past years, we have built a coherent, structured and fully operational international presence.

Today, this foundation is solid, active and recognized, based on:

  • committed local partners,
  • harmonized editorial standards,
  • a highly legitimate brand.

A Year of Major Expansion

We are entering an offensive execution phase.

More than 10 new countries will be launched in 2026, significantly accelerating our global footprint.

A Digital Ecosystem Driving Growth

Our digital infrastructure enables:

  • rapid deployment,
  • a consistent user experience,
  • centralized global content

The Gault&Millau application will evolve to become:

  • a global gastronomic discovery platform,
  • a single entry point,
  • an enhanced tool with recommendation and personalization.

Value Deployment and Brand Influence

We continue to develop:

  • licensing activities,
  • brand extensions,
  • strategic partnerships.

A Clear Trajectory

This is not a transition year.

This is a year of conquest.

We accelerate, deploy and consolidate, establishing Gault&Millau as the global reference media for gastronomy and hospitality.
