How it works

The "Basic Food Box" anchors the program and is loaded with enough food to assist feeding a family of four for about a week, or a single person for almost a month! This food box, with a retail value of between $60 - $80 is provided for only $30. The MENU changes each month in order to provide a variety of food items.

Great Food For All also makes available nutritionally enhanced Senior Citizen meals and specialty Valu Paks that may be loaded with steaks, chicken, seafood, pork and coffees.
 
Food orders are placed at a local Host Site during a period of about 10 to 14 days each month. Orders are pre-paid and a receipt is provided to the customer at that time. Our sites accept cash, Visa, Master Card, debit card, money order, and Food Stamp EBT Cards as payment.

On a pre-determined Saturday morning once each month the food arrives on  refrigerated trucks at Drop Sites which serve as a pick-up point for a group of local Host Sites. Each site transports the food back to their individual sites and set up for their local distribution of food to their customers.

Customers arrive at the Host Site where they ordered their food at pre-set distribution time, with their receipt, and receive their food from the local volunteers.  Each Basic Food Box and Valu Pak comes pre-packed and ready for delivery.

How can we do this?

We would like to tell you that it is a miracle, but actually it is just common business practice.  By utilizing local churches and other non-profit organizations for the distribution of the food, Great Foods avoids many expenses that local and chain food companies and groceries stores are forced to pay. The dedicated volunteers and caring staff from our Host Sites take the orders and handle the distribution. It is like operating a grocery chain, but there's no mortgage, no rent. no liability insurance, no payroll, no inventory expense, no returns, no restocking, no spoilage, no coupons to collect, no long lines, no membership cards, no hassels, and no end to the savings.

Where does the food come from?

We purchase only quality products direct from the manufacturers. We use our own private labels on foods produced by nationally known manufacturers. We use  special bulk buys on high quality foods. No scratch & dent, no outdated products, no donated foods. All the high quality foods just like you use now, only less cost for you.
