Definitive Contract 123J1426C0364

JTM Provisions Co Inc., doing business as JTM Food Group, was awarded a definitive contract by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service on December 11, 2025, to supply frozen chicken strips in 30-pound cartons for domestic food assistance programs. This firm fixed-price contract carries a ceiling value of $2.23 million with an ultimate completion date of February 28, 2026, and will be performed in Hamilton, Ohio. The contract was awarded without a small business set-aside designation and represents JTM Food Group's continued role as a key supplier of protein commodities to federal food donation and nutrition initiatives, including programs such as the National School Lunch Program and The Emergency Food Assistance Program.

The award stems from the Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service Commodity Procurement Program solicitation, which sought multiple chicken product categories totaling over 5.6 million pounds for delivery across multiple states between January and March 2026. JTM Food Group, a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation based in Harrison, Ohio, specializes in manufacturing and supplying meat and poultry products to the federal government and has demonstrated reliability through numerous prior USDA contracts with values ranging up to $12 million. The contracted chicken strips will support the USDA's food assistance mission, with all products required to meet United States origin requirements and comply with food safety and Global Data Synchronization Network reporting standards.
