The Largest Educational Food and Support Services Provider
From kindergarten to higher education institutions, we are re-inventing the school dining experience every day.
At educational institutions across the country, we are re-inventing the on-campus dining experience. We are challenging the norm and setting new standards by investing in high-tech, food-infused social spaces that bring people together to promote meaningful relationships and interactions.
Chartwells offers a dynamic, customized dining program that meets the holistic needs of our students. As the leading educational food and support services provider, Chartwells Canada is passionate about the food we serve, the people we interact with, the partnerships we build and the opportunities we bring to your campus communities. With our distinct cuisine, passionate community, exceptional talent, dedicated global resources and cutting-edge technology, we have the power to nourish, inspire and collaboratively transform the campus experience through food.
Our promise is to create a student-first experience that originates with chef-driven, seasonally-inspired, diverse and authentic menus, scratch-cooked responsibly sourced food. From there, we build an experience far beyond traditional campus dining: a focus on health and wellness, programs that support dietary needs and preferences, and functional food that comforts and fuels students thorough their academic journeys. Chartwells Canada is dedicated to being a collaborative thought partner, integrating into the community to bring to life a dining experience reflective of your unique campus experience.
We are food-forward difference makers, bound together by a desire to fuel hungry minds and enrich the lives of your campus communities.

In 2018 Chartwells Canada introduced the Thinking Ahead Giving Back (TAGB) vision, setting out to transition from foodservice department to collaborative thought partner by delivering a student-first campus experience. Through three TAGB pillars, we focus on giving back to support food security, community impact, and student career development. After years three years of creating impact on our partner campuses and in our local communities, Chartwells re-launched the vision setting out to achieve new social impact goals.
