    Common Questions

    What makes ICC different from other cafeteria vendors?

    Founded by a 20 plus-year K–12 school nutrition veteran, ICC delivers expert cafeteria transformations with industry-leading white-glove service—making every project seamless from concept to completion.

    How long does a cafeteria transformation take?

    Project timelines vary based on scope but ICC regularly completes installations during evenings, overnight, and weekends, meaning most projects require zero disruption to meal service or the school week.

    Does my district need a large budget to work with ICC?

    No. ICC specializes in phased projects that work within existing budgets. The vision session is specifically designed to identify the highest-impact improvements for what you have available right now.

    Will this create more work for our staff?

    No. We manage the entire process from start to finish. Your team will review and approve the design and we will take care of the rest.

    Do we have to remodel the entire cafeteria?

    Absolutely not! Some districts start with smaller updates such as replacing older tables, creating a feature wall, or refreshing one dining area at a time.

    What happens after I submit the form?

    Kern personally follows up to schedule your Complimentary Cafeteria Vision Session at a time that works for your district.
