The purpose of this study was to investigate how Swedish municipalities work with food preparedness in preparation for extraordinary events. The purpose was also to see if the preparedness differs between municipalities depending on size in terms of area and population. To answer these purposes, three questions about food preparedness, geographical areal responsibility and private actors in meal activities were raised. The method used was a questionnaire, which was sent to employees who work as meal manager, diet manager or work with food preparedness in each municipality. The results of the study indicate that municipalities with an area and population less than the median in Sweden has come further in the preparedness work. The municipalities ́ view of food preparedness linked to their delegated geographical areal responsibility cannot been clarified. Furthermore, the results indicate that one of the eight municipalities with private actors can take care of residents who receive food from the private actors and thereby follow the principle of responsibility and the Swedish model of welfare.
