Three Ways to Buy
Order the way
your district already buys
Ordering numbers and availability can differ by distributor and program. Use the WFHC reference codes and Sysco item numbers on this page, then confirm the matching distributor or FFAVORS item with the appropriate representative before placing an order.
Order through Sysco
Ask your Sysco representative to check for Wisconsin Food Hub Cooperative school-ready vegetables and confirm which items are available for your account.
Sysco item numbers are listed with each product above. Numbers may differ from WFHC reference codes and can vary by distribution center.
Use USDA DoD Fresh
Eligible schools use USDA Foods entitlement through the FFAVORS system. Product and vendor availability must be confirmed in the current FFAVORS catalog.
Check FFAVORS or ask your state distributing agency or DoD account representative whether WFHC products are currently available for your account.
Understand USDA DoD FreshOrder directly from WFHC
Current customers order through the WFHC customer portal.
