And much more.
Start by clearly outlining what you expect from the collaboration.
For example: “We’re a specialty tea brand launching in Taiwan, and we want food influencers who can showcase our products in tasting videos, café features, or local food tours that resonate with food lovers aged 18–45.”
Having this written down ensures you stay focused on the types of creators and content styles that fit your campaign.
Generic “food influencer” searches won’t be precise enough. Add local and niche context:
Keywords: “food influencer Taiwan,” “台灣美食部落客,” “Taipei food Instagram,” “Taiwan food YouTuber,” “foodies in Taichung.”
Trends/Events: Who posts about night markets, local food festivals, seasonal fruit, bubble tea hotspots, Michelin / local guides?
Competitor collabs: Which influencers have already worked with restaurants, cafés, or food/ beverage brands similar to yours?
Using Impulze, you can filter creators by location (Taiwan / cities like Taipei, Kaohsiung), niche (food/reviews/cuisine), follower size, and engagement rate to build a tailored list quickly.
Follower count does not always mean influence. Always verify:
Engagement metrics — likes, comments, saves/shares relative to follower size.
Comments that indicate authentic interest (“Which stall is this?” / “How much is this dish?”).
Audience demographics — if available, confirm a Taiwan-centric audience or relevant region for your campaign.
Our free Chrome extension SocialiQ helps you get quick insights into engagement and audience data directly on Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube influencers.
Food influencers in Taiwan cover a wide range of styles. Choose creators whose voice and aesthetic match your campaign goals:
Restaurant reviewers: dine-in experiences, deep-dives into local spots.
Home cooks/recipe makers: cooking tutorials and cultural recipe content.
Street food / local culture creators: night markets, snack tours, hidden gems.
Beverage and dessert influencers: cafés, bubble tea, sweets & pastries.
Lifestyle food creators: food + travel, food guides, seasonal eats.
Selecting the right style makes collaborations feel authentic and relevant to the audience.
Instead of committing big right away, begin with smaller test collaborations:
A reel or carousel post highlighting your product with a food feature.
A tasting video or short food vlog that integrates your brand.
A story takeover where the influencer takes followers through an eatery or food moment.
This helps you gauge audience response, engagement, and the overall fit before scaling up to larger partnerships.
