HSFC is a team of food service operations professionals who support charter and non-public schools and districts and community organizations with food program implementation and management. Using best practices gained through years of experience, along with a commitment to our partners' success, we ensure sustainable food program operations in schools and communities.
Our mission is to reduce childhood obesity by providing students, families and communities access to nutritious and affordable food sources and to promote the development of lifelong healthy dietary and living behaviors. We are committed to accomplishing these goals through our partnerships with charter schools, school districts, non-public schools and community organizations.
HSFC does not provide food but instead is a food operation administration liaison on behalf of food programs (schools, community centers) with distributors, suppliers and vendors. HSFC local, regional and national vendor affiliations bring value and economies of scale to schools and community organizations who offer meals.
Because of the regulatory challenges that are part of all reimbursable meal programs, school food and child and adult nutrition programs frequently seek the services of HSFC to ensure compliance with regulatory challenges that unfortunately change every year. We make sure food programs follow mandated guidelines, and we help adjust operations to meet them so that the program is meeting regulations.
HSFC does not provide food service staff to work in your food program day-to-day operation. The Food Service Management Company your organization selected provides staff while HSFC focuses on the overreaching administration that includes Regulatory management and compliance, Procurement Management and Meal Claims Administration, for example.
HSFC is affiliated with meal management companies who provide the technology necessary to manage meal programs, financials and operations.
HSFC has a great relationship with many local, national and regional food service management companies and can recommend a variety of FSMC’s who could be considered. We understand the nuances of working with FSMC’s so that your operation is profitable and of the highest quality service.
HSFC services are customized to each organization. While a 60-school district may request only Menu Planning and Nutrition Consulting, another may request regulatory expertise and staff resources to prepare for an audit and administrative review.
Organizations do not need to be of a certain size to partner with the HSFC. Our clients include a wide variety of organizations ranging from small schools with 50 students to large school systems with multiple campuses and hundreds of students. HSFC also supports non-profit community food programs and summer camp organizations small to large.
