Foodservice K-12 school district data
Every K12 foodservice account combines district-level operator data, program structure, and verified decision-maker contacts. No need to stitch together NCES enrollment data, state child nutrition rosters, and cold guesses about which districts have right-fit programs.

Target best-fit opportunities with data on total district enrollment, school count, grade-band composition, and location down to ZIP code, locale, and county.
NSLP & program participation data
National School Lunch Program participation and free/reduced/paid meal eligibility rates, plus estimated meals served per day, to help you understand what a district can buy before you invest in outreach.
District budget & operational scale
District revenue, food service expenditures, and teacher count, so you can size a district's cafeteria program and purchasing power.
Verified foodservice purchasing & nutrition contacts
Child nutrition directors, food service supervisors, and purchasing/procurement managers. Verified and refreshed when you request them.
