About this award
Forestwood Farm, Inc., a family-owned produce and dairy distributor based in Birmingham, Alabama, was awarded a delivery order for Chilean cantaloupes valued at $1,587.17 by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence program on January 13, 2026. The delivery order represents a tactical fulfillment requirement under Forestwood Farm's broader indefinite delivery contract with DLA Troop Support, which is valued at $4.9 million and authorizes the supply of USDA Grade 1 or better quality fresh fruits, vegetables, and shell eggs to support Department of Defense and United States Department of Agriculture school nutrition programs across the North Dakota and South Dakota geographic zone through September 30, 2030. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, indicating that Forestwood Farm competed successfully in an unrestricted, open procurement process.
The award reflects the company's established capability as a reliable vendor for federal subsistence operations, with demonstrated performance delivering fresh agricultural commodities to military dining facilities and institutional food service operations. DLA Troop Support's Subsistence program utilizes indefinite delivery contracts to efficiently meet ongoing produce requirements across designated geographic regions, with individual delivery orders issued as tactical demand dictates. Forestwood Farm's single-award contract vehicle was established following a Request for Information issued in August 2023 that established the geographic zone structure, positioning the company as a critical supplier for its assigned region within the upper Midwest.
