About this award

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) awarded a $191.1K definitive contract to Tony Downs Foods Co (doing business as Downs Food Group) on February 26, 2026, for the supply of frozen chicken strips in 30-pound containers. The award resulted from an unrestricted Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) commodity procurement solicitation posted on January 22, 2026, which sought approximately 4.09 million pounds of various chicken products for domestic food assistance programs. The contract carries no small business set-aside designation, though the awardee is a self-certified small disadvantaged, veteran-owned business based in Madelia, Minnesota. Delivery is scheduled for completion by June 15, 2026, with shipments distributed to multiple U.S. locations and overseas territories including Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands on an FOB destination basis.

Downs Food Group, registered in SAM.gov since 2002, specializes in manufacturing chicken-based commodities for federal government nutrition initiatives and has an established track record with the USDA, including an indefinite delivery contract valued at $2.91M for chicken fajita strips with the AMS. The current award supports the agency's food assistance mission by providing protein-rich commodities to vulnerable populations. All materials supplied under this contract must comply with domestic sourcing requirements per the Agricultural Acquisition Regulation, food defense plan certifications, and GS1 GDSN reporting standards, with pricing evaluated on a firm fixed-price basis.
