Pan Pepin Inc., a minority-owned Hispanic American small business manufacturer based in Bayamón, Puerto Rico, was awarded a $47,806.47 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Federal Bureau of Prisons for bread products to be delivered to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico. The contract, awarded January 1, 2024, with an ultimate completion date of August 18, 2025, represents a modification to increase funding to cover prior invoices and decrease the bread request for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. The underlying solicitation, posted November 28, 2023, called for hot dog buns, hamburger buns, and various sliced breads to be delivered on a bi-weekly schedule between January 2, 2024 and March 28, 2024, with deliveries required within 48 hours of baking. No set-aside designation was applied to this award.
Pan Pepin Inc. brings established experience as a reliable supplier to federal detention facilities and military dining operations throughout the Caribbean region. The company currently holds two significant indefinite delivery contracts: a $417,658.06 agreement with the Department of Veterans Affairs running through August 31, 2029, for fresh bakery items supporting the Caribbean Healthcare System, and a $250,000 Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence contract effective through November 15, 2025, for fresh bakery products supporting military dining facilities. This purchase order award demonstrates the Federal Bureau of Prisons' continued confidence in the vendor's ability to supply quality baked goods to support institutional food service operations.
