About this award
The U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Subsistence division awarded a firm fixed-price delivery order valued at $100,467.17 to Foster-Caviness Co, Inc. for the supply of fresh watermelon and chilled produce to military installations and government facilities. The contract, awarded on August 26, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of the same date, represents a non-set-aside delivery order for perishable agricultural commodities. Performance will take place in Colfax, North Carolina, where Foster-Caviness operates as a small business specializing in fresh produce distribution to federal government customers. The award is structured as a firm fixed-price delivery order, ensuring cost certainty for the government.
This delivery order likely draws from Foster-Caviness's larger five-year Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) with DLA Troop Support valued at $181.9 billion, awarded in April 2024 as a total small business set-aside. The company maintains required Perishable Agricultural Commodities Act (PACA) licensing and United States Department of Agriculture Good Agricultural Practices/Good Handling Practices certifications, demonstrating compliance with stringent government procurement and food safety standards. Foster-Caviness has established itself as a reliable supplier of fresh produce to military dining facilities and other government institutions throughout the North Carolina region, with a demonstrated track record of delivering targeted produce orders through the DLA supply chain.
