1

Drexel Campus Dining powered by SodexoMAGIC has been Drexel University’s food

service partner for over 19 years. Today, Drexel Campus Dining operates twelve locations

throughout campus, including a residential program, nine retail concepts creating a mix of local

and national brands, University Club, and a robust catering program. The Handschumacher

Dining Center, which is home to our residential program, consists of a 569-seat dining room

with twelve various food concepts ranging from fresh salads to international cuisine.

On March 11, 2015, Drexel Campus Dining hosted its largest and most successful event of the

year: Drexel Loves Local. The event highlighted three pillars: sustainable sourcing, minority

entrepreneurs, and our West Philadelphia Proud. This event was successful due in part

to the partnership with The Enterprise Center, a local nonprofit organization that supports

minority entrepreneurs by providing access to capital and business acumen. Through

The Enterprise Center, Drexel Campus Dining welcomed ten minority entrepreneurs,

giving them the opportunity to showcase their culinary talents and signature dishes. Each

entrepreneur was given access to a station in the Handschumacher Dining Center to craft

their specialty and Drexel Campus Dining’s culinary team worked in partnership with each

entrepreneur to scale recipes and support production.

MENU AND MEAL

4

Flavorful, diverse and unique are just a few words to describe the menu. The

entrepreneurs and Drexel Campus Dining’s chefs crafted each dish carefully

to showcase their brands’ most popular foods. The menu showcased

several preparation styles, including braised, grilled, and steamed. From

authentic samosas to aged dried bacon, all items were presented as action

stations, allowing guests to customize their plates. In the spirit of the City of

Brotherly Love, each guest was personally welcomed and received a menu

highlighting the entrepreneurs’ dishes, which emphasized the availability of

the campus Registered Dietitian to answer specific inquiries.

THEME DEVELOPMENT AND EXECUTION

12

13

Drexel Campus Dining’s Love Local event was based on the idea of

an “Urban Garden.” Upon arrival, guests were transported into a new

destination considerably different from the dining center they are

accustomed to. At entry, guests were greeted with displays of fresh fruits

and vegetables, greenery and event lighting, each lending itself to an urban

garden aesthetic. Tables were adorned with a sustainable cling featuring a

word cloud customized for the event or a recycled plastic bottle table cloth.

Serving stations offered unique plating methods ranging from self-serve to

made-to-order, allowing guests to customize their plates as they pleased.

14

15

Located in the heart of the fifth largest city in the

United States, Drexel Campus Dining embraces

its stance on social responsibility and the

environment. Drexel’s Love Local event, together

with the West Philadelphia Proud campaign,

were created to support and promote pride in our

workforce and surrounding community.Drexel Campus Dining

To support the event’s theme on localism, the Handschumacher Dining Center was transformed into an urban garden space with fresh greenery displays and décor featuring familiar local monuments.

18

As a nod to Philadelphia’s Reading Terminal Market,

entreprenuers were placed at different stations throughout

the servery. Special details included ice cream served

directly from Little Baby’s tricycle cart and grab-and-go dessert stations customized

by local favorites, Smackaroons and Red Fox Gourmet.

strategic marketing and effective promotion. The marketing team

utilized both direct and indirect methods of marketing through social

media, digital displays, and print collateral for the Local Love event. All

advertising efforts were created in a unified aesthetic, featuring the

Philadelphia skyline, blue skies and green fields. As a special touch,

wooden coins were provided to guests upon entry which allowed them

to vote on their favorite menu offering. This friendly competition allowed

entrepreneurs to interact with guests to earn more coins at their station.
