UNF Food Truck Procedure

Current food services contracts with Chartwells and Mayes allows for food trucks to provide “catering” (free food provided at event) without limitation, however, food trucks providing “retail” (i.e., customers pay for food) are limited to twelve (12) events each contract year.

Because there is a maximum number allowed and multiple departments / organizations desire to utilize, it is necessary to allocate these in advance to ensure utilization stays within the stated maximum:

  • Eight (8) assigned to Academic and Student Affairs
  • Four (4) assigned to all other divisions

View our Catering and Food Service page for information on our registered food vendors.
