The VSCA Buying Guide assists you to source products and services that are suitable for your school canteen and that meet the Victorian government policy for school canteens and other school food services.

The VSCA Buying Guide is an ideal tool to help you find new and old products and services for all your school food services. You can revitalise your menu, get new ideas, add variety, organise special days, plan food events and improve your school canteen.

VSCA Registered Products are very carefully assessed according to Victorian government nutrient criteria, and are allocated a "VSCA Rating" to help you to select healthier choices for your canteen. ALL VSCA Registered Products - all products found in the VSCA Online Buying Guide and the VSCA Printable Buying Guide - meet the Victorian government policy for school canteens and other food services.

The VSCA Online Buying Guide

A listing of VSCA Registered Products and Services includes lots of vital information about products and services - varieties, serve size, etc. You can even see more information for some products and services by clicking on those in the listing that are bold and underlined (click here to see an example).

A listing of VSCA Registering Companies includes company contact details for schools wanting more information about a VSCA Registered Product or Service. For each VSCA Registering Company, you can view or print VSCA Registration Certificates for all the products currently registered by that company - just click on "VSCA Registration Certificates" under the Company Name.
