Your Bridge to Local

Something To Write Home About: Emerging Trends and Insights on Today’s College Campuses

Affinity Group Season 1 Episode 1

With 42% of College and University foodservice operators using their dining halls as a recruitment tool for incoming students*, it’s no surprise that today’s campus dining halls have upped their culinary game. There’s no better time for manufacturers to collaborate with college and universities to deliver everything their customers are looking for: Diverse menu offerings, greater social responsibility and customization. In this episode, Affinity Group’s Mindy Kopacz and Amanda Colgan talk to Peter Testory from University of Wisconsin Madison and Chip Morgan from Smithfield Culinary to discuss ways to build that bridge to local and give kids something to write home about!
