The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded Langer Juice Co Inc. a definitive contract on January 9, 2026, for the supply of Concord grape juice in 8/64 fluid ounce plastic bottles to support domestic food assistance programs. The firm-fixed-price contract, valued at $116,624.50, will be performed in La Puente, California, with an ultimate completion date of March 31, 2026. This award was designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, reflecting the contractor's status as a self-certified small disadvantaged business. The solicitation, which closed on January 2, 2026, required offerors to supply approximately 68,675 cases of bottled juice produced in the United States in accordance with Agricultural Acquisition Regulation requirements, with deliveries scheduled for March 2026 to multiple locations across the country.

Langer Juice Co Inc., a family-owned juice manufacturer located in Hacienda Heights, California, has established itself as a consistent supplier to USDA nutrition programs, including the National School Lunch Program and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. The company's expertise in producing bottled juices for federal food assistance initiatives, combined with its prior performance on larger indefinite delivery contracts with ceiling values exceeding $8 million for similar Concord grape juice products, positions it as a reliable vendor for this commodity procurement supporting low-income communities and school nutrition initiatives.
