Purchase Order 15B50826P00000024

The Federal Correctional Complex Forrest City awarded a $22,171.50 firm fixed-price purchase order to Proffer Wholesale Produce Inc. (doing business as Proffer Produce) on October 14, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of December 3, 2025. The contract, which did not utilize a set-aside designation, calls for the delivery of wholesale produce to support food service operations at the correctional facility. Performance will take place at the vendor's location in Park Hills, Missouri. Proffer Produce, a long-established supplier based in Park Hills, has maintained a substantial track record of federal procurement since 1964, specializing in certified organic and fresh produce delivery to government agencies.

This purchase order represents a continuation of Proffer Produce's ongoing relationship with the Bureau of Prisons, part of the Department of Justice, which has consistently engaged the vendor for recurring produce deliveries to federal correctional facilities. The company's demonstrated capacity to support large-scale food distribution operations, combined with its historical performance on similar contracts ranging from smaller purchase orders to multi-million-dollar delivery agreements, positions it as an established supplier within the federal food procurement ecosystem. The relatively modest ceiling value of this particular award suggests it may represent a routine weekly or periodic delivery cycle supporting the nutritional and operational needs of the correctional facility's food service program.
