Top 3 School Meal Vendors in Sacramento

Finding school lunch vendors in your area that will satisfy your cafeteria’s needs can be a headache. They may not have a website or reviews online, so it can be difficult to source and research these businesses. More importantly, it can be hard to know what the quality of the food will be.

We’re pretty familiar with the vendor landscape in the Sacramento metropolitan area, so we’ve assembled the top 3 here.
