CHAPTER 1
Introduction
Since the pandemic and the lockdown are no longer strict, there have been f2f
classes again in schools, including the Center for Positive Futures in Montalban. With the
reopening of the school, the livelihood of some parents who work in the school canteen
has also opened up. And also, everyone knows that the price of goods and other products
The Philippine Republic Act No. 7394 or The Consumer Act of the Philippines
protects consumer rights against harm to safety and health, protects consumers against
unfair and unreasonable sales, and provides the right information for consumers. Most
schools have their own canteens that sell meals to everyone inside the premises. As the
Center for Positive Futures opens again this school year, the school canteen does too.
The canteen services are available to the school staff, teachers, and students. These
meals are always sold to everyone at the designated meal time or break time by the
school. It is always ensured by the canteen to provide the necessary nutrients while
maintaining an honest price for the meals they prepare. Other than preparing meals in
school, the canteen is also important when it comes to accommodating the students in
food service instead of going outside the school premises for food. The food services that
the canteen provides our customer service, quality of food, variety, etc. It is recommended
that schools adopt comprehensive health and well-being programs, including food and
nutrition education. The establishment and maintenance of a school canteen are critical
in fostering a passion and interest in purchasing nutritious and healthy food among
students, faculty, and school personnel, allowing them to enjoy nutritious and healthy food
at affordable prices throughout the school day. The canteen should also present students
with a variety of cuisines and dishes to assist them to enhance their skills and knowledge.
Presently, the students of the Center for Positive Futures Montalban have different views
and opinions about the canteen services provided. Some complain it is too pricey,
therefore they are not able to buy the food and nutrition they need. There are also various
experiences and opinions about the variety of canteen meals available. Based on the
Asian Journal of Empirical Research (2018), Student food service management can
effectively use these findings to ensure student satisfaction. This study adds to the
food services. According to the Menu satisfaction level at the university student cafeteria
study by Norlaila Abdullah et al. (2009), a good variety and choice of menu in a school
cafeteria affects the satisfaction of the students. Their records and responses mostly
indicate that students have complaints about the prepared food in the cafeteria. Hence,
the researchers are challenged to conduct this research in order to assess the canteen’s
quality of service to the students at the Center for Positive Futures Montalban. The
findings will serve as feedback in order to provide more effective services to the students.
Background of the Study
influences the personal satisfaction of students and faculty at universities and colleges.
A growing body of evidence suggests that other factors, such as the food environment
and its availability and accessibility play an important role Garg (2017).
Food safety is important as it helps to protect the consumer from the risk of
conditions such as allergies and even death. It is no longer new to students if they have
a favorite snack in the canteen that they always buy. As typical Filipinos, we have different
tastes in food, our tongues are not always looking for the same thing. We can tell that a
customer is satisfied and likes the food when the first time they taste it, they always return
to buy it every time and in a short period of time, it becomes one of their favorite foods.
The foods that are sold in the canteen such as snacks and rice meals are the foods
According to Galabo (2019), Every canteen bears the task of providing high-
quality food, meals with adequate service, and good sanitary practices for the consumer
Administrators and canteen committees must ensure that school canteens meet national
standards for food preparation, storage, hygiene, and safety. Failure to do so would result
in serious health problems for staff and students who consume the fare.

interest in purchasing food, allowing them to enjoy meals at reasonable costs during the
day. The canteen should also offer a range of cuisines and dishes to customers.
It is recognized that dietary habits, preferences, and behaviors are established in early
childhood. Therefore, it is essential that the foods which are made available to children at
their school canteen enable the healthy eating advice they learn in the classroom to be
For students who use the canteen regularly, the food purchased makes a
significant contribution to their total food intake and nutrition; therefore, it makes sense to
ensure the best food possible is available to enhance their ability to learn and take in the
A product's cost is a reliable indicator of its quality. The best is always a little more
expensive. In other words, the quality increases with money. Also, sometimes the price
of the product influence students’ decision. Pricing is said to have a big impact on student
purchasing decisions since the more expensive a product is, the less of it is sold. In
contrast, it is presumed that goods selling for less than the going rate will sell in greater
quantities. This study aims to know what is the satisfaction level of the students with the
Canteen Services and its relation to the price rate of canteen goods in Center for Positive
Futures Montalban.
