Purchase Order 15BFTD26P00000068

Morabito Baking Co Inc., a veteran-owned, small disadvantaged business based in East Norriton, Pennsylvania, was awarded a $87,542.45 firm fixed-price purchase order by the Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix (under the Bureau of Prisons) for bread products during the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 (April 1 – June 30, 2026). This award is designated as a total small business set-aside and represents a continuation of Morabito's long-standing relationship with the Bureau of Prisons, during which the company has consistently supplied fresh baked goods to multiple correctional facilities. The contract requires delivery of bread items including hot dog rolls, hamburger rolls, and whole wheat bread, which must meet strict freshness and temperature control requirements with deliveries completed within 48 hours of baking.

The solicitation from which this award resulted emphasized past performance evaluation, specifically assessing timeliness and order accuracy, with price as a secondary factor. Morabito's award reflects its established track record of reliable performance across numerous Bureau of Prisons facilities and demonstrates the agency's confidence in the vendor's ability to meet the precise operational and nutritional standards required for institutional food service operations. The vendor's experience serving federal correctional institutions over two decades, combined with its certification as a small disadvantaged and veteran-owned business, positioned it competitively for this quarterly procurement supporting the inmate population at FCI Fort Dix.
