About this award
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service awarded a delivery order to Bongards Creameries on April 9, 2026, for the supply of cheese blend American skim milk solids in 12/2-pound loaves to support federal food donation programs. This fixed-price-with-economic-price-adjustment contract has a ceiling value of $3.84M and an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2026, with performance to be completed at the contractor's Humboldt, Tennessee facility. The award carries no set-aside designation, indicating open competition among qualified vendors.

The company operates production facilities across multiple states and has demonstrated substantial capacity to fulfill large-scale federal procurement requirements, with recent contract awards in December 2025 including $6.3M and $2.89M orders for cheese products. This delivery order represents the continuation of Bongards Creameries' role as a critical supplier in the USDA's food donation infrastructure, ensuring the consistent availability of nutritional commodities for vulnerable populations nationwide.
