How do pantries get cereal?

Each community site and shop&drop site is paired with a community pantry. When the collection is over, the pantries pick the cereal up directly from the stores. They then can start distributing the cereal immediately. When cereal is dropped off at the Arkansas Foodbank, it is added to our online order system. Pantries can order the cereal online, and it is either delivered to them or picked up by pantry representatives.
