Richardson, TX (PRWEB) April 11, 2017 -- Minute Menu Systems, the leader in Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) management software with over 600 sponsor organization customers, announced today that it has partnered with Alpine Investors V, LP (“Alpine Investors”), a values-driven private equity firm with a mission to build enduring software companies.
The partnership with Alpine Investors will enable Minute Menu to fulfill its mission to continue to deliver the most comprehensive CACFP solution to America’s childcare sponsor organizations and providers.

A history of success in offering innovative solutions for childcare providers
Since 1993, Minute Menu Systems has provided unparalleled opportunities to CACFP sponsors and childcare providers, delivering valuable business tools and offering truly dedicated support and customer service to its clients. Minute Menu has steadily grown by focusing on quality service to loyal, unwavering customers, and by building a team committed to investing their unique talents into the company’s mission and culture. As a result, Minute Menu is the leading provider of software solutions for the CACFP community today.
“I couldn’t be prouder of our new partnership with Alpine Investors. They are truly a great match for our company because they share our values, understand the importance of our mission and were willing to invest in us to further realize our potential to improve the lives of our customers,” said Natalie Clark, Chief Operating Officer and Board Member. “We will continue to fulfill our commitment to the CACFP community, and accelerate our product roadmap with new and enhanced solutions for the childcare markets we serve.” Through her 20+ years at the company, Natalie has become a leader within the CACFP community, serving on the USDA’s CACFP Paperwork Reduction Work Group and presenting at multiple National CACFP conferences.
“I am incredibly excited to join Minute Menu Systems, and look forward to working closely with Natalie and her team to help grow the business,” said newly appointed Chief Executive Officer, Matt Wilson. “Like many American children today, I was the son of working parents and grew up in the childcare system. I am thrilled to contribute to the Minute Menu mission of enabling CACFP sponsors and childcare providers toward their goal to provide nutrition and care to our nation’s children.”
Matt, part of Alpine Investors’ PeopleFirst™ program and a passionate advocate of its PeopleFirst™ principles, operational best practices, and commitment to forming long-lasting partnerships, has assumed the role of CEO at Minute Menu.
