Make Healthy Choices Easy: Grab'n Go Strategies for School Nutrition

Need to find a better way to make healthy meal choices easier for your busiest students? Fresh, preportioned foods such as salads, yogurt parfaits, and sandwich wraps are appetizing options students can quickly grab and go.

Strong merchandising is key to enhancing visibility, accessibility, and proper serving temperature. Well designed and stocked merchandisers also help students get through the line faster. 

These grab'n go merchandisers make fresh food options appealing, accessible, and easy for students to eat smart, even when they're on the go.

 


The Oasis Refrigerated Self-Service Dual Sided Case keeps the lines moving on both sides with an efficient way to serve milk and other cold grab’n go items like sandwiches, smoothies, yogurt, and veggie cups.

This versatile Structural Concepts merchandising case enables you to serve healthy options to double the students in the same amount of time in a footprint that’s just a little larger than a single-sided case.

 


The rustic and fun TableCraft Two-Tiered Crate Frame Riser with Acacia Crates creates an instant, eye-catching display.

 Placed on a tabletop in the hall or a counter in the cafeteria, this grab-and-go station is perfect for items like shelf-stable beverages, fruit cups or fresh fruit, and protein bars. Adjustable shelves can display flat or on an angle for easier access.

 


Hatco’s Flav-R-Savor® Refrigerated Air Curtain Merchandiser keeps fresh, cold food products like veggie cups, salads, and sandwiches at the ideal temperature while maximizing visibility. 

With a sleek black textured exterior designed for retail merchandising, insulated glass end panels, and intuitive controls, it enhances product appeal and boosts sales.

 


The Hatco Glo-Ray® Designer Merchandising Warmer keeps hot, packaged foods like grilled chicken sandwiches and rice and veggie bowls at proper serving temperatures.

The slanted shelves make it easy for staff to load from the kitchen while students retrieve their hot food as they walk through the serving line. Available in single and dual shelf models in multiple widths from 30.25" to 66.25".

Are you ready? Thank goodness lunch has come a very long way since the Golden Age of Piracy! Back in those days, between roughly 1650 and 1720, refrigeration didn’t yet exist, and hygiene on the high seas was sketchy. Meals consisted of salted and dried beef and hardtack “bread” made of simply flour and water, while fruits and vegetables were a rarity at sea. Beer or grog were safer to drink than the water, and they typically provided more calories than what little food was available. A reimbursable meal is fine dining by comparison! Lucky for us all, we now have a pirate’s bounty of ways to store, prep, cook, and serve safe, nutritious, tasty, and vermin-free meals.  What’s your treasure?  Serving as Many Stud...
