The SGV Co-Op allows the AUSD Nutrition Services to be in compliance with the general procurement regulations in 2 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Section 200.318-200.326. It also allows AUSD Nutrition Services to take advantage of discounts, rebates, and the advantage of large districts & #39; purchasing power to obtain the best quality and rates on food.
