Cafeteria Breakfast vs. Classroom Breakfast: The Choice is Clear

According to findings of the 2009 School District Census Report, a national survey by Foodservice Director magazine:

CAFETERIA BREAKFAST:

  • The average national cost of cafeteria-served breakfast is $2.05 per meal
    • The #1 cost component is LABOR, at 51%
    • Even at the maximum "free" federal reimbursement rate of $1.74, the losses are sizeable
    • Cafeteria breakfast loses money

CLASSROOM BREAKFAST:

  • Increasing breakfast ADP is the key to maximizing your labor costs and reducing your per meal average
    • Classroom breakfast can increase your participation up to 4 times – from 20% to 80%
    • Labor costs per meal are driven down while feeding more children, IF YOU INCORPORATE pre-packaged meals
    • Unprofitable cafeteria breakfast becomes profitable classroom breakfast with many more children fed

Classroom Breakfast: Feed more children and save more money – a win-win for all!
