The purpose of this Request For Proposal (RFP) is to develop a list of approved branded fast food vendors and specific products in various categories to be served to secondary school students. Products will be evaluated for specifications and sampled using student taste testing. The Food Services Department reserves the right to taste test and add new vendors at any time whenever it best serves the needs of the students and cafeteria management. Subsequent additions will be taken to the School Board for approval before a vendor may be added. Proposals will only be accepted from firms with approved brands or submitted samples for evaluation. All sample testing will be done without product logo or identification. The students will rate each product individually. Products will not be compared. To provide samples for the testing period, please contact the Food Services Department at 850-469-5637 by Friday, May 21, 2021.
Upon mutual written consent and approval of the School Board of Escambia County, FL, this Agreement will be issued in one (1) year increments up to a total of five (5) years subject to the availability of lawfully appropriated funds. The initial term of the Agreement(s) shall be from August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2022.
