Why ask customers their opinions? • Customer feedback lets you know how they rate the products and services. • Customers evaluate quality in terms of their own experiences and perceptions. • Perceptions are reality to the customers and influence how often they choose school meals. • Customers make their decisions every day about whether to eat or not...what they will choose from the variety offered and whether or not they will eat the food they select. • The customers’ opinion about the SNE influences their decision to eat or not to eat. • Customer feedback provides a basis for building a customer-focused program.
