The Center for Good Food Purchasing is a public policy organization focused on transforming procurement practices to create a more transparent, equitable food system. It manages the Good Food Purchasing Program, guiding major institutions in adopting a values-based purchasing approach and establishing supply chain transparency from farm to fork. By applying data to verify commitments across five value categories—local economies, environmental sustainability, valued workforce, animal welfare, and nutrition—the center measures impacts on school meal nutrition, worker livelihoods, farm animal welfare, and environmental outcomes. Based in Berkeley, California, the organization works with national and local partners to build a pipeline of participating institutions and leverage large public food dollars to influence purchasing decisions. Recent activity includes partnerships and collaborative efforts with organizations like Friends of the Earth and Chef Ann Foundation to address the needs of school nutritionists, farmers, and local food distributors.
