NATURAL BODYBUILDING & FITNESS NOW IN ITALY!
PUBLISHER SANDRO CICCARELLI HAS UNITED NB&F WITH OLYMPIAN'S MAGAZINE IN ITALY!
By Steve Downs
Thanks to cooperation between Chelo Publishing, Inc., and publisher Sandro Ciccarelli in Italy, Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness is now being published in Italian – back to back with Olympian's News.
Starting with the May 2008 issue of Olympian's News, Italian readers and natural bodybuilding buffs will find Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness paired with their magazine. The Italian-version of NB&F will publish quarterly in Italy, just as it is in the U.S. Issues will go on sale three months following their original introduction to English-speaking markets.
"We couldn't be happier with our relationship with Sandro," says Cheh N. Low, Publisher & President of Chelo Publishing, Inc. "We look forward to a long relationship with Olympian's News and to picking up many new readers for our magazine and natural bodybuilding enthusiasts in Italy."
In addition to the publishing relationship, Ciccarelli has formed the new Natural Bodybuilding Federation of Italy (NBFI), which will serve as the official Italian pro-qualifier affiliate for the Pro Natural WNBF. This means Italian national champions in the NBFI will be eligible to turn pro in the WNBF, and compete for more than $35,000 in prize money each November in the WNBF Pro Natural World Championships in New York City.
