Ministry of Education statistics show that 2.4 million primary and secondary school students around Taiwan eat school lunches. Over 1,600 of our 3,400 elementary and middle-school kitchens are publicly owned and managed. Another 400-plus are privately run as schools outsource the operation of their kitchens to professional caterers.
