Budget estimate

$5,000,000 – $15,000,000

No explicit contract value is disclosed, but typical school district food‑service contracts in South Carolina range from $5 million to $15 million annually, depending on student enrollment and meal volume. Assuming a multi‑year agreement (e.g., three years), the total contract value could be $15 million–$45 million. This estimate factors in the district’s size, the firm‑price‑per‑meal pricing model, and industry benchmarks for comparable K‑12 nutrition programs.
