Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

our service

What services does RFRK provide?

Our child care catering service can provide a full day program that includes daily deliveries of hot lunches + AM & PM snacks. Don’t need the full day? We can make that work too.

Our Before & After Program snack catering can provide AM & PM snacks.

How much does RFRK’s catering cost?

Not as much as you think! Prices depend on a few factors like enrollment numbers, location and the age of the kids. Reach out for a quote!

Do you have a minimum order?

Our minimum enrollment for catering is 35 kids per day. However, if you have fewer kids, there are still ways we can help support you. Contact us here!

Where does RFRK deliver?

We serve the entire Greater Toronto Area, including north to Aurora, east to Clarington, west to Hamilton, and south to Lake Ontario. Click here for a map of our delivery zone!

What ages does RFRK serve?

We serve healthy, from-scratch meals and specially curated snacks to kids 0-12 years old. We make sure that each age group is fed appropriate portions and textures, and we even make our own infant blends!

Who do you provide service to?

We currently deliver to public and private child care centres, schools and Before & After programs as well as summer day camps.

Are you a home daycare or other organization in need of support? Contact us to learn more.

What does my staff have to do?

Just a few basics! We know your staff is busy, so we try to make work on your end as minimal as possible. Every centre that partners with us will receive a detailed onboarding package outlining exactly what to expect from us, and what we’ll need from your end.

On a typical service day, you’ll need a support staff member from your child care centre to provide access into your facility and receive the delivery between 7:00am and 10:30am. You’ll need your own dishware, cutlery and the ability to wash your own dishes.

Your support staff will slice fresh fruits and veggies like apples or cucumbers before serving them and will distribute meals to the children in each room the way that works best for you.

As a child care provider, we know you have a lot to think about: children and their well-being, their families, your staff, schedules, illnesses, and budgets. Those stressors have increased over the past few years, so we make sure that having well-fed children is one thing you don’t have to worry about.

Can you provide a reference from a centre you work with?

Sure! We’d be happy to put you in touch with a centre of a similar size currently using our services. Reach out to us.

What if I have a problem or need to make a change?

We’re here to help! You’ll be assigned a dedicated Client Experience Coordinator, who you’ll be able to call directly during business hours or email anytime. They’ll get to know your centre’s needs inside and out, so they’ll be able to quickly help you with your request or resolve any issue that may arise.

In addition, we offer a user-friendly online experience where you can request changes to your data 24 hours a day. Add or remove children from your centre enrollment and make other dietary change requests with a few quick clicks—then we take care of the rest.

Do you have a back-up plan if a delivery can’t be made?

We do! We have several contingency plans in case of unforeseen circumstances that could affect either our food production or food delivery.

Our first goal is to ensure successful delivery every day. Then, we have a number of contingency plans in place to keep your food on track, including on-site power generators, contingency ingredients at RFRK for an entire day's worth of meals, additional vehicles, and contingency drivers on standby to get a delivery to you every day without fail.

In the extremely rare event that we cannot make delivery, or you cannot accept one, we’ve got alternatives - including emergency food options for you to store in your pantry.
