GlSN Magazine (gsnnews.com) is a business-to-business publication operated by GSN Media Group Ltd, focused on the global grocery retail industry — including supermarkets, FMCG, private label, packaging, technology, and fresh produce.
We are committed to maintaining the highest editorial standards in journalism, accuracy, integrity, and transparency across all our published content.
1. Editorial Independence
Our editorial team operates independently from commercial and advertising departments.
All news articles, features, and reports are produced with journalistic integrity and are not influenced by advertisers, sponsors, or partners.
Our primary goal is to inform our readers — including supermarket buyers, suppliers, manufacturers, and trade professionals — with relevant, factual, and timely information that supports decision-making.
2. Editorial Standards & Accuracy
We strive for factual accuracy, balance, and clarity in everything we publish.
Before publishing, all content undergoes:
Fact-checking and verification
Source validation (including PR, direct interviews, or third-party data)
Internal editorial review
Our writing follows industry best practices and editorial guidelines tailored for B2B media.
3. Corrections & Updates
We believe in transparency and accountability.
If we identify or are notified of an error, we will:
Promptly review the concern
Update the article to correct the information
Add a visible correction note when appropriate
Readers can submit corrections to: editorial@gsnnews.com
4. Sponsored Content & Partnerships
We collaborate with commercial partners for sponsored articles, product features, interviews, and special reports. These are always clearly labeled as:
“Sponsored”
“Partner Feature”
“Advertisement” or “Promoted”
Sponsored content is produced in line with our editorial standards but may include input from the sponsor. Such content does not influence our independent coverage.
5. Use of Press Releases & Submissions
We receive and publish selected press releases from verified companies in the supermarket and FMCG industry. These:
May be published as-is or edited for clarity
Are vetted for authenticity and relevance
Are not guaranteed coverage unless agreed in advance
Companies may submit announcements to: press@gsnnews.com
6. Contributor Guidelines
We accept contributions from subject matter experts and industry professionals, under the following conditions:
Submissions must be original and not previously published elsewhere
We retain the right to edit for clarity, structure, or style
Commercial pitches must follow our sponsored content policy
To pitch an article: editor@gsnnews.com
7. AI Content Use
All published articles are written and edited by humans.
We may use AI tools to assist with formatting or idea development, but no article is auto-generated or published without human oversight and final approval.
