About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded a definitive contract to Pacific Cheese Co Inc. on February 2, 2026, for the procurement of shredded yellow Cheddar cheese in six-pound packages to support domestic food assistance programs. The contract, valued at $180,549.60 on a firm-fixed-price basis, will be performed at the contractor's facility in VC Highlands, Nevada, with an ultimate completion date of May 31, 2026. This award was made without a set-aside designation and fulfills requirements from the broader Agricultural Marketing Service Commodity Procurement Program solicitation 12-3J14-26-B-0117, which sought combined Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese products for distribution across multiple U.S. locations.
The underlying solicitation, posted on January 16, 2026, required all products to be manufactured in USDA Dairy Programs-approved plants and to be of U.S. origin in compliance with Agricultural Acquisition Regulation requirements. The total estimated procurement under the broader solicitation was 514,080 pounds of combined Cheddar and Mozzarella products, with deliveries scheduled between April and June 2026 to facilities in Texas, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Nevada, New Jersey, Alabama, and Indiana on an FOB destination basis. While the Mozzarella string cheese portion included a 35% Small Business and HUBZone set-aside, the Cheddar cheese procurement, under which this award was made, remained unrestricted to all eligible bidders.
