How to search IFD's product catalog
Having trouble finding an item? Try this trick!
Have you ever tried searching for an item on eInFoLink but are unable to find it? There’s a chance this item may be categorized “Restricted” or "Proprietary." This means that we block Customer’s from being able to search the product catalog for it because we don't want another Customer to steal inventory on an item that is proprietary for schools or a specific school district. If you are unable to use the product catalog page to find this item, try adding the item number to your order guide! You can edit personal order guides and add/remove items. If you are able to punch the number in, save your order guide, then view it and you can now access the nutritional information for that item. It will also appear on the same order guide within the Place Order page.
