Receiving is where the ownership of the goods changes ownership from the vendor to the food service operation. It plays a key role in the cost control system of a food service operation. Unfortunately it is often over looked.

Evaluate the receiving function of a food service operation by answering the following questions. If you use the operation you evaluated the purchasing for just give me the name. If you chose an operation different from one you have evaluated previously, please give me the name, location, and concept of the operation, thanks

As with the other assignments I bundled the questions together.
