The contract calls for the supply of bottled fruit juices in 8/64 fluid ounce plastic bottles, specifically apple juice, cherry apple juice, grape concord juice, and cranberry apple juice, intended to support federal food assistance programs including the National School Lunch Program. The award is designated as a total small business set-aside and carries an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2026, with all products required to meet U.S. origin requirements in accordance with Agricultural Acquisition Regulation standards.
