When you partner with NMS, you gain our commitment to support your tribal goals and aspirations. We currently provide food and facilities management services and security to tribal entities in Alaska and the contiguous U.S.
As Alaska Native people we honor heritage. Our traditional Inupiaq values inform and merge with modern management strategies, which we strive to integrate with your own tribal nation story.
Food Services – Tundra to Table
From “tundra to table™” we develop creative, carefully researched recipes and programs that maximize value without sacrificing quality or flavor. Our Alaska Native roots and values support our commitment to providing traditional and indigenous foods to our tribal clients. Every day, we see how traditional foods play an integral role not only in keeping indigenous people healthy, but in celebrating and promoting culture, heritage and traditional ways of life.
Through our food sourcing programs and understanding of the need for food sovereignty, NMS is committed to serving culturally-appropriate food produced through ecologically sound and sustainable methods. We believe in the right of indigenous people to define their own food and agricultural systems.
