This is a federal contract award from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Foreign Agricultural Service to Incobrasa Industries LTD, a for-profit manufacturer of goods based in Gilman, Illinois. The contract, with a ceiling value of $160,021.83, is for the delivery of vegetable oil products in various packaging formats, such as 4-liter cans, 48-ounce bottles, and 1-gallon bottles. The contract is a definitive, firm fixed-price contract that has a partial small business set-aside designation. The award supports domestic nutrition assistance initiatives and international food aid programs, as Incobrasa Industries LTD has established itself as a significant supplier of agricultural commodities, particularly vegetable oils, to multiple USDA agencies. In addition to this contract award, Incobrasa Industries LTD has also received several federal grants from the USDA's Rural Business Cooperative Services, totaling between $131,775.59 and $1,000,000, to support the company's efforts to enhance its advanced biofuel production capabilities, with a focus on biodiesel manufacturing from vegetable oils and other agricultural feedstocks.
