This paper analyzes how municipalities in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo (RMSP) and the Administrative Region of Registro (RAR) established their food purchasing network from Family Farming for school feeding in 2018, considering the concept of a short marketing circuit, implicit in Article 14 of the National School Feeding Program Law (11.947/09). Its objective is to analyze the effectiveness of A14 in the RMSP and RAR, taking into account the percentage of purchase from FF, products required, degree of processing and commercial flows established through institutional purchasing. The approach is quantitative and qualitative descriptive, using data from the National Fund for Education Development, especially the Accountability Reports of the municipalities implementing the PNAE, available in the Accountability Management System (SIGPC - Public Access). It was observed that the effectiveness of A14 in the RMSP is low in relation to local development, with most purchases being made from farmers in other regions and other states. In relation to RAR, the effectiveness of A14 is high, with the purchase of almost 90% of products for school meals in the territory itself.
