Conventional foodservice system has been the most prevalent system across the country. However, all the elementary students throughout the country is not being provided with school lunch program because of the restriction on equipping school foodservice facilities. So commissary foodservice system was introduced to school lunch program in 1991. This study was designed to evaluate condition of existing major equipment including volume, probable useful life, and frequency of use and determine equipment improvements on conventional and commissary school foodservice systems. A questionnaire was developed and mailed to 87 dietians of conventional and 46 dietians of commissary school foodservices in Kyunggi-do. Response rates were 89.1% and 91.3%, respectively . Approximately one third of commissary foodservices were converted from conventional to commissary. Only 52.6% of conventional and 53.5% of commissary foodservice facilities/equipments have been desirable in quality and quantity. Capacity, functional ability, using frequency, and relationship with efficient work management were analyzed according to school foodservice system.

This study was conducted to investigate the satisfaction of school dietitians with foodservice facilities and utilities in the Chonbuk area of Korea. Self-administered questionnaires were collected from a total of 22 dietitians. Statistical data analysis was completed using the SPSS v. 10.0 program. The results are summarized as follows. Among the 222 school foodservice systems, 68.5% of the schools prepared meals the conventional way and 31.5% prepared them the commissary way. Most of the school foodservice facilities were located on the first floor. Satisfaction with the location of the foodservice facility was not significantly different between the conventional and commissary systems. However, overall dietitian satisfaction with the foodservice facility locations was poor. Approximately 30% of the dietitians responded that one of the most important problems for foodservice management was the limited space and worn-out equipments in the kitchens. For dietitians' satisfaction on the types of facilities present, most schools had constructed dietitian offices, food storage facilities, cafeterias, rest rooms, dressing rooms, and preparation facilities. Yet, the amenities most often missing were storage facilities, preparation facilities, dressing rooms, rest rooms, etc. For overall satisfaction with the status of facilities and utilities, we found no significant differences between dietitians in the conventional(2.89) and commissary foodservice systems(2.86); however, the satisfaction level among the dietitians was poor. Therefore, governmental regulation agencies need to review and approve plans prior to the new construction or extensive remodeling of school foodservice facilities. Finally, content analysis was also conducted regarding the dietitians' opinions on foodservice facilities and utilities.
