San Francisco-Marin Food Bank | Shop Floor Training For Our Agency Partners

Welcome!

The San Francisco-Marin Food Bank relies heavily on our community partners to deliver high-quality food assistance programming throughout San Francisco and Marin. Partners like you make it possible for us to distribute over 48 million pounds of food to our neighbors in need each year.

A training in 4 steps

We want to ensure that all new agency shoppers have a full understanding of our shop floor guidelines and food safety best practices and expectations. By the end of the training, you will have a clear understanding of our commitment to ensuring food quality & safety, as well as how to put this knowledge to use when shopping and preparing meals/snacks at your agency.

To complete the Authorized Shopper process all four steps need to be finalized – from watching the videos, taking the test, to getting authorization from your agency Executive/Program Director.

Step 1: Watch the Videos

There are five videos in the playlist below. The next video will begin when you finish the current one.
