NAICS Code 624210-01 Description (8-Digit)

Food Banks are non-profit organizations that collect, store, and distribute food to individuals and families in need. These organizations work to alleviate hunger and food insecurity by providing free or low-cost food to those who cannot afford it. Food Banks typically receive donations of food from individuals, grocery stores, and other food-related businesses, and then distribute the food to local food pantries, soup kitchens, and other organizations that serve those in need. Food Banks also often work to educate the public about hunger and food insecurity, and advocate for policies that address these issues.

History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 624210-01 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • Food banks have been around for centuries, with the first recorded instance of a food bank being in the 18th century in France. However, the modern food bank movement began in the United States in the 1960s, with the establishment of the St. Mary's Food Bank Alliance in Phoenix, Arizona. The 1980s saw a significant increase in the number of food banks in the US, with the establishment of the Second Harvest network, which later became Feeding America. In recent years, food banks have become more prevalent worldwide, with organizations such as the Global FoodBanking Network working to establish food banks in countries around the world. In the United States, the food bank industry has seen significant growth in recent years, with the number of food banks increasing from around 200 in the 1980s to over 200 food banks in the Feeding America network alone in 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic has also had a significant impact on the industry, with many food banks experiencing increased demand due to the economic impact of the pandemic. In response, many food banks have expanded their operations and partnerships to meet the increased demand for their services.
