The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support awarded a delivery order valued at $1,391.54 to P.J.K. Food Service, LLC for the supply of fresh apples. P.J.K. Food Service, operating through its Keany Produce Company Division and doing business as Keany Produce & Gourmet, is a family-owned wholesale produce distributor headquartered in Hyattsville, Maryland, that specializes in supplying fresh fruits and vegetables to federal government agencies, particularly military installations and veterans' healthcare facilities. The delivery order, which was awarded and completed on November 14, 2025, utilizes a firm fixed-price contracting structure with no small business set-aside designation and performance at the contractor's Hyattsville, Maryland location. This award represents one of numerous produce delivery orders issued to the contractor by the Defense Logistics Agency during October and November 2025, reflecting the company's established role in supporting federal subsistence supply chains across the mid-Atlantic region.

P.J.K. Food Service's federal contracting activity demonstrates substantial government engagement across multiple agencies and contracting vehicles. The company maintains a $284.25 million indefinite delivery contract with DLA Troop Support Subsistence designated as a small business set-aside and holds a $200.5 million indefinite delivery contract with Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 under the Department of Veterans Affairs, with multiple delivery orders issued under both frameworks. Additionally, the company has participated in federal nutritional programs through sub-award activity under the National School Lunch Program, further demonstrating its involvement in supporting government subsistence and nutritional initiatives beyond its primary military and veterans' healthcare focus. The contractor's consistent performance across multiple federal agencies and the high volume of delivery orders received reflects its qualification as an established and reliable supplier of fresh produce to the federal government.
