For all in the education catering sector, the main goal throughout this year has been to ensure that pupils across the UK continue to have access to nutritious, hot school meals.
Whilst this year has thrown many challenges to education professionals, it's great to see how we’ve all pulled together in a time of crisis to provide the vital services essential to every pupil in the UK.
The team at CRB Cunninghams is taking a moment to reflect on the past twelve months and look back on some of the great things we've managed to achieve this year with the help of our customers and our industry.
Over £2.3 million in pre-ordered meals in 2020!
At the beginning of this year, we launched our pre-order app, Fusion Online to make lunchtimes truly contactless and provide long-term benefits such as reduced food wastage, increased school meal uptake, simple reporting for staff, and reduced queues to name just a few. To date, over £2,000,000 worth of school meals has been pre-ordered with Fusion Online.

TLG’s Make Lunch programme provides children and families who would otherwise go hungry with free, hot and healthy meals during the school holidays and tackles the issue of child hunger. We're delighted to have continued our partnership this year, helping TLG to open two additional lunch clubs in 2020. Read More >
CRBC Software users share their feedback
We asked students, guardians, and school staff at CRB Cunninghams cashless schools how they would benefit from online payment and pre-ordering software. With over 460 responses submitted over 5 days, our user feedback shows a real demand for online and pre-ordering in UK schools.
As we approach the festive season, we wish to extend our very best wishes to all our customers, friends and supporters.
On behalf of everybody at CRB Cunninghams, we wish you a happy, safe and healthy Christmas and prosperous 2021.
