Star Food Healthy Express Makes 400th Placement
in Schools Across USA
(1888 PressRelease) Star Food Healthy Express is
the leader in vending reimbursable meals in
schools across the USA. Healthy, USDA approved,
multi-component breakfast, lunch and snacks are
served in less than 20 seconds. Miami, FL -
Thanks to the addition of schools in Dallas,
Texas Knoxville, Tenn. and across Pinellas
County Florida - there are now more than 400 Star
Food Healthy Express machines feeding school
children across the USA healthy meals for
breakfast, lunch and snacks. "This means as many
as 100,000 meals are getting to kids every week
of the 36 week school year," said Joe Gilbert, GM
and Vice President of VE South, based in Fort
Lauderdale. VE South is the parent company of
Star Food. "This is a very conservative estimate
and does not reflect the full capacity of the
machines." "That's about 3.6 million meals a
year for kids who qualify for free or reduced
cost meals at school." "Before Star Food many
kids just did not have a chance to eat and make
it to class - our machines serve healthy
reimbursable, multi-component meals in less than
20 seconds," said Gilbert.
High-tech and high- touch works for students say
the school foodservice executives nationwide who
utilize Star Food Healthy Express machines in
their schools. It works for schools too by better
utilizing their nutrition staff and offering meal
opportunities when the cafeteria might not be
open, like early morning or during after school
programs. According to Bob Gottlieb, Director of
Educational Services for Star Food, schools
across the USA are looking for options to "Feed
More Kids" and are turning to Star Food, the
leader in reimbursable meal vending for schools.

"We just finished the School Nutrition
Association's big show and were swamped by school
nutrition experts wanting to learn more. We were
the first to introduce this concept 8 years ago,
and the schools understood right away what it
could do for the kids and to impact the revenue
they bring in through foodservice," said
Gottlieb. V E South L C is one of the largest
full-service vending machine companies in the
Southeast and is headquartered in Fort Lauderdale
at 4800 NW 15th Avenue, Suite B, Fort Lauderdale,
