RE:Renewal of Contract for Produce for 2010-11 School Year

On June 25, 2009, the Board of Education awarded a contract to Foster Caviness Company, Greensboro, NC to supply fresh produce for the school nutrition program during the 2009-10 school year. The contract was for one year with the option to renew for up to four additional years.

During the 2009-10 school year, Foster Caviness has complied with all contract terms and specifications. The estimated cost of the contract for the 2010-11 school year is $480,795.75 (estimate is based on prior year’s utilization and consumption as well as future menu planning).

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends renewing the contract with Foster Caviness to supply fresh produce for the school nutrition program for the 2010-11 school year.
