School Lunches Reimagined: apetito’s Revolutionary Street Food Van
Proven Success
Launched following a successful trial at The Grange, the school not only found pupils were enjoying the wide variety of meals on offer but also saw a remarkable 35% increase in hot meal uptake. This impressive statistic speaks volumes about the appeal of the van. In fact, the van has been so popular with older students, that the school are rolling out another van into its sixth form dining room. As Stephen Gauller, Chief Operating Officer of The Grange School explains:
“Since having the Street Food Van by apetito in our dining hall, we’ve found the children have been more engaged with their meals and excited to see what cuisine is on the menu that day. The children particularly love ‘La Cantina’ & ‘The Chippy’. We have not only seen an increase in our variety and offering to our older pupils but knowing they’re receiving a healthy and nutritious meal in a grab-&- go format, which is going to provide them with the energy they need to finish the school day is fantastic.”
Revolutionising School Catering I
n the ever-evolving landscape of school catering, apetito is leading the charge with its groundbreaking new street food van.
Schools can now transform their catering with apetito’s new grab-&-go solution - a distinct servery unit which imitates a ‘street food’ van experience, bringing a breath of fresh air to school catering.
This revolutionary approach to school meals is designed to provide a healthy alternative to traditional grab-&-go offerings, which typically offer pupils unhealthy and uninspiring options like sandwiches, pasties, chocolate and crisps. It also addresses the significant demand for food on the go in large schools with small dining spaces or limited time to complete service. One of the standout features of apetito’s street food van is its ability to combine quality and convenience. It is perfect for busy school environments, allowing pupils to quickly and easily access their meals without compromising on quality. The van provides pupils with meals with a diverse range of delicious and nutritious meals and enables schools to play a significant role in helping pupils broaden their culinary horizons.
apetito’s street food van has been designed to cater to the tastes and preferences of KS2 and secondary students, amongst who grab-&-go solutions are increasingly popular compared to the traditional dine-in service. The van features six interchangeable chef-developed ‘street food’ inspired international restaurant themed menus, with more in development. Utilising the existing apetito catering solution, the van enables schools to offer a different cuisine every single day such as vibrant Mexican dishes from ‘La Cantina’ or delicious Italian meals from ‘Buon Appetito’. The van brings excitement back to lunchtimes and keeps pupils coming back wondering ‘which cuisines will it be tomorrow?’
With its focus on quality, variety, and nutrition, apetito’s street food van offers a compelling alternative to traditional school meals. Schools that choose to partner with apetito will be at the forefront of transforming school catering, providing their students with meals that are as enjoyable as they are nutritious.
apetito’s dine-in and grab-&-go solutions offer schools high-quality school meals that provide guaranteed safety and nutrition, whilst providing schools with substantial commercial and operational benefits.
By offering an unrivalled premium pre-prepared meal system, apetito likes to think of itself as ‘in-house, made easy’ specialists. Everything apetito does is designed to simplify your operations and help you gain back control of your kitchen and mealtimes.
Already fuelling the learning and wellbeing of over 25,000 children every day, apetito’s revolutionary school catering solutions allow schools to focus on educating the next generation.
