About this IDV
So-Pak-Co, Inc., doing business as Sopakco Packaging, was awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $25.87 million by the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence division, with an ultimate completion date of February 3, 2029. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business set-aside, encompasses the procurement of specialized meal products including Meals Ready-to-Eat (MREs), religious meals, and related subsistence items tailored to meet diverse military dietary and religious requirements. The originating pre-solicitation notice, posted November 2, 2023, specifically sought feedback on Halal-certified rations consisting of one Halal-certified entree with complementary items providing a minimum of 1,200 calories and 24-month shelf life at 80 degrees Fahrenheit, with estimated quantities ranging from 19,000 to 285,000 boxes. Performance is conducted at the contractor's headquarters in Mullins, South Carolina, where Sopakco maintains its food processing and packaging operations for military subsistence supply.
The contract generates numerous delivery orders on a firm fixed-price basis, with task orders ranging significantly in value from under $100 to approximately $132,840, reflecting the government's variable operational feeding requirements across military personnel and units. Representative task orders issued between June and August 2025 demonstrate consistent procurement of "Meal, Religious, Read" products with completion dates typically 7 to 14 days from award, indicating rapid replenishment cycles for military subsistence operations. All delivery orders were awarded competitively without set-aside designations at the task order level, underscoring Sopakco Packaging's established market position as a primary supplier of specialized military meal solutions. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence division utilizes this and complementary Indefinite Delivery Contracts to ensure continuous availability of religiously certified meal options, including Halal and Kosher entrees, supporting the nutritional and religious accommodation requirements of United States military personnel worldwide.
