1.3. Food Service Segments

Food service can be segmented into two sectors: Commercial food service and non-commercial food service establishments. A commercial food service establishment main purpose is to create and sell food and beverages for profit. Non-commercial food service establishments are embedded in organizations where food and beverage are not the primary business focus, such as in healthcare, education, the military, and transportation (Egan 2015).
