About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded a $455.5K definitive firm fixed-price contract to Brownotter Buffalo Ranch, LLC on September 4, 2025, for the procurement of frozen, ground lean bison meat packaged in 40/1 LB units to support domestic food assistance programs. The contract, which requires completion by December 31, 2025, was awarded without a small business set-aside designation following a competitive solicitation posted on August 8, 2025. Brownotter Buffalo Ranch, a Native American-owned, veteran-owned, and minority-owned limited liability company based in Timber Lake, South Dakota, holds an SBA HUBZone certification and is classified as both an Indian Economic Enterprise and Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise. Performance occurs in New Rockford, North Dakota, with deliveries scheduled to North Little Rock, Arkansas and Kansas City, Missouri between October 16, 2025, and February 15, 2026, on an FOB origin basis.

This award represents continuation of Brownotter Buffalo Ranch's established relationship with USDA as a prime contractor specializing in nutrient-dense bison products for federal food assistance initiatives, particularly the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations. The company previously held a multiple-award indefinite delivery contract with USDA's Washington Office valued at $162.36K, under which it issued numerous delivery orders ranging from $17.6K to $44K, collectively supplying over 800,000 pounds of frozen ground bison products. The current contract procures approximately 580,000 pounds of ground lean bison, with all products required to be grown, processed, and prepared for sale exclusively in the United States in compliance with Agricultural Acquisition Regulation requirements. No subcontractors are identified on this award.
