When it comes to catering for children in the Kranzberg care facilities, quality is more important than price.
That is why the little ones in the Kranzberg facilities continue to get food from the region.
Kranzberg
- So far, Klaus Thermer, the landlord of the Freisinger Lindenkeller, has been cooking in the Kranzberg children's house.
Now the community had to renew the order and confirmed the local cook to a provider from Munich.
This showed great satisfaction with the previous care and the confidence that a continuation of the cooperation is the best solution for the children from the community.
The second provider presented a concept according to which the food for the children in Munich is prepared and then delivered frozen.
Then there is also unpeeled fruit, for example, which is why the community continues to need helpers on site.
You probably have to hire more helpers because the food in Kranzberg has to be warmed up after delivery.
Munich food for Kranzberg's children would be cheaper - but frozen
The advantage of the Munich provider would be the price, because over the year the municipality would have to pay around 10,000 euros less.
The families with small amounts would feel that too.
The local council made it clear, however, that when it comes to a high-quality and healthy lunch for the children, money does not play the most important role.
"Here we can do something for regionality," said Roland Haslbeck.
Councilor Braun thinks that offers are not comparable
He made it clear that with the preparation on site in the children's home, another truck transport through Kranzberg could be avoided.
The local council also asked what would happen on days when the food delivery from Munich was stuck on the motorway in a traffic jam.
With regard to the two offers, Franz Braun said “that one is comparing apples with pears”.
The fresh preparation on site is a part of the quality of life: "Others would lick their fingers." In the sum of the points, the committee agreed that the kitchen on site should be more sustainable, flexible and reliable than a supplier from Munich .
That is why the collaboration with Klaus Thermer is now being extended.
This includes around 24,000 meals per year, which parents pay for using the Kitafino app.
