Food & Beverage Professionals

Cal Poly Pomona students with the desire to experience and learn more about the food and beverage industry "We came. We saw. We ate."

The Student Chapter provides students who have an interest in the food service industry with memberships and benefits of the Restaurant and Foodservice Professionals. We work together to network for professional growth, enhance professional skills, and promote the visibility of women and men in the food, beverage, and hospitality industries. We are students interested in food/beverage who are bein

g mentored by a California-based organization of food service professionals, devoted to providing educational, mentoring, and networking opportunities. Membership with RFP allows students to attend monthly meetings, networking opportunities, to listen to guest speakers, to attend tours and to participate in California chapter meetings. It is a chance to become acquainted with other Cal Poly Pomona students who share an interest in the food industry. Make friends, eat, and have fun!
