Delivery and service of all meals will be to 1059 Canal St., Manchester, NH 03101, with the contractor responsible for off-site meal preparation, on-site setup, serving, and cleanup, while maintaining food safety standards including proper temperature maintenance and sanitation requirements throughout the service period.
