Meals on Wheels

Napa Valley College, like many other institutions, was looking for a way to budget their campus dining and found a solution with food trucks.  NVC has been outsourcing management of its cafeteria to a series of contract operators but because of a subsidization clause and the school’s responsibility for maintenance of facilities and equipment, it was a money-losing proposition.  After noticing the surge in food truck operations, the school launched a program at the beginning of the current school year.  Participating trucks rotate around campus from 11am to 2pm, with six onsite each day.  The trucks each pay the school $50 a day to operate on campus and the rotation allows the campus to have day-to-day variety.  The reaction so far has ben nothing but positive.
