About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service awarded a definitive contract to Knouse Foods, Inc., a small disadvantaged business based in Orrtanna, Pennsylvania, for the supply of canned apple commodities totaling $1.77M. Under this partial small business set-aside contract, Knouse Foods will deliver canned apple slices and unsweetened applesauce in 6/10-ounce configurations to support the National School Lunch Program and other federal food assistance initiatives. The contract, awarded on July 31, 2025, with completion targeted for December 15, 2025, was issued through the Web-Based Supply Chain Management system in response to a solicitation released on July 8, 2025, which sought frozen and canned fruit commodities from U.S.-grown and processed sources for nationwide distribution.
Knouse Foods, a cooperative manufacturer with consistent experience serving USDA food assistance programs since its SAM.gov registration in 2002, is well-positioned to fulfill this requirement. The company has a proven track record of delivering apple-based products under federal contracts with firm-fixed pricing structures and has previously supported domestic food assistance programs through multiple award vehicles. This contract represents another instance of the contractor's core capability to supply agricultural commodities to support the USDA's mission of ensuring food security for vulnerable populations through school nutrition and food donation programs.
