Healthy Choices Made Easy with Ojeda Merchandisers

Refrigerated Merchandising Solutions Built for High-Traffic School Service

As a K-12 nutrition leader, you’re balancing participation, speed of service, budgets, and ever-changing guidelines, all while trying to make the “healthy choice” the easy choice for students. The ALPA open-air merchandiser series from Ojeda is built for K‑12, giving you a budget-conscious way to showcase fresh, appealing grab-and-go items that fit right into your existing serving lines or new builds.

Multiple Sizes & Configurations

ALPA makes it simple to turn hallways, kiosk spaces, or existing cafeteria lines into high-visibility, self-service stations. Bright LED lighting and open access put milk, cut fruit, salads, yogurt, and snacks front and center, encouraging students to make quicker, and often healthier, choices without slowing down the line. Multiple sizes and configurations, including SLIM models, help you fit the right unit into elementary, middle, or high school layouts, whether you’re working with a tight footprint or planning a full retrofit.

Built for High-Traffic Use

Because school days are tough on equipment, ALPA is designed for high-traffic use, built to handle constant student access during breakfast, lunch, and after-school service. Market-aligned pricing helps you stay within district budgets without sacrificing quality, and consistent temperature performance supports food safety in open-air environments. With a 3-year parts and labor warranty and 5-year compressor coverage, you get extra peace of mind that your investment will support your program for the long haul.

Custom Graphics That Reinforce Your Program

Turn your ALPA merchandiser into a branded nutrition ambassador. Ojeda’s factory-direct custom graphics let you add district logos, healthy eating messages, meal program promotions directly onto the unit. Vibrant, durable wraps withstand daily student traffic while reinforcing your messaging. Our design team works with your brand guidelines to create graphics that fit your program, whether promoting reimbursable breakfasts, farm-to-school initiatives, or special dietary options. Custom colors available to match your cafeteria aesthetic.
