Why is it important to print standardized G4G materials?

G4G provides a quick and easy way for service members to find performance-focused foods and drinks. Using standardized G4G signage, including food and drink cards, in your facility aligns with G4G Program Requirement #7: Marketing & Education by helping to inform diners how to use G4G and the impact of nutrition on performance, readiness, and health. In addition, dining facilities can benefit from G4G by promoting themselves as the best option for delicious, performance-boosting fuel. Before you get started printing G4G materials:

  • Assemble your G4G team.
  • Bring your local G4G team up to speed on the latest policies and training requirements.
  • Evaluate the available space in your facility to help determine which materials fit best.
  • Determine a marketing plan to get the word out about how G4G helps diners fuel well for peak performance - check out these strategies.

Tip from the field

During the planning process, ask yourselves, “How can we display G4G materials to help service members fuel for performance?
