About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded a definitive contract to Bongards Creameries for the supply of cheese blend American skim milk solids in 12/2-pound packages to support federal food donation programs. Valued at $6.3 million with a firm fixed price and no small business set-aside, the contract was awarded on December 31, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of April 15, 2026. Performance will be executed at Bongards' facility in Humboldt, Tennessee. Bongards Creameries, a Minnesota-based agricultural cooperative specializing in dairy product distribution, has established itself as a primary supplier of cheese commodities to USDA nutrition assistance initiatives.
This award represents a delivery order under one of Bongards' existing Indefinite Delivery Vehicle contracts with the Food and Nutrition Service, which provide the agency with efficient procurement mechanisms for cheese and dairy commodities supporting domestic food assistance programs. The company's extensive track record includes the supply of various cheese products—including natural American cheese, cheddar, processed cheese, and cheese blends—to school meal programs, food banks, and other nutrition initiatives across the United States.
