Promotional ideas to boost canteen sales

A clean and friendly dining room, delicious display of green (daily) goods that fascinates students and encourages healthy food and beverage sales

A playful "cool" name gives the cafeteria an identity that can be used for promotion of various canteenes, such as cafeteria items, dining offers, brand lunch bags.

Clean up the food service area, food display area, and fixtures cleanly. This will reassure the students and their parents that the cafeteria's food is fresh and safe to eat.

By keeping the cafeteria and furniture clean, clean and attractive, and creating a warm environment

GREEN (Everyday) Give your students an interesting and attractive name for food and drinks. For more ideas, see the fun and descriptive words of health food.

Use text to describe the taste, appearance, or service of the item. For example, "melt tasty pizza" or "succulent cob of a succulent succulent topping with sweet chili sauce"

Try to associate names with popular themes, movies, bands, sports, or special events. For example, "one way meal" or "Supply of meat pie for football players" etc.

We display the names, prices and sometimes ingredients of health foods and beverages. After all, if you do not know what it is, or how much it will cost, will you buy something?

Put the padding in front and show sandwiches, burritos, rolls, so you can see what students are buying.

Use display shelves and props to help present your food in an attractive way. For example, clean up the bowl with a clean and colorful tea towel, give the baked goods a "homemade" feel, or use a green (daily) snack color display stand

The counter proposal box is a suitable way for students to provide feedback on items in the cafeteria or to identify new foods and drinks they want to see on the menu.

When considering adding new items to the menu, please try their popularity and collect feedback through free student tasting

A practical guide for planning obesity prevention programs for school-aged children and adolescents

The purpose of the guide is to provide a framework to support the sale of health food at school canteen. Currently, the eatery guide only covers the school cafeteria in the state or region where it is located, but a national cafeteria guide is prepared to coordinate existing canteen guide for state and territory schools. The canteen guide for schools in South Australia was not applied during the study; however, the school was able to get the position paper to explain the guide. Some administrators of the school canteen who read the position paper are concerned that these guidelines will hinder the sale of beneficial foods in dining rooms such as pies and hot dogs.
