Tens of thousands of meals come out of City Fresh Foods in Roxbury every day. The prepared foods company was just awarded a $17-million contract to provide meals for Boston Public School students. Co-owner Sheldon Lloyd admits, the contract is a bear but tells Boston 25 News, he’s used to hard work.
That Looks like What I eat at Home
“I’m from Boston, this company is 28 years old, my kids have been in the [public school] system. So, for me, it’s more than just a contract,” Sheldon Lloyd said. “We did it to fulfill that mission of being able to feed the kids of Boston and give them something better and different and to make a difference,” he said.
