Food Products, Commissary

The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division awarded a term contract to Union Supply Group, Inc., a Dallas-based supplier, for the delivery of food products to support commissary operations. The contract, designated as Term 26209378, was executed on February 9, 2026, with a cumulative value of $19,092.36. The place of performance is the Huntsville Commissary Warehouse in Huntsville, Texas, with delivery scheduled for February 12, 2026.

The specific deliverable under this purchase order consists of 714 cases of shredded beef with barbecue sauce manufactured by Hereford, meeting specifications for no monosodium glutamate and gluten-free formulation. Each case contains 12 items of 6 ounces per item, with a minimum order requirement of 200 cases at a unit price of $26.74 per case. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division facilitated the transaction, and the State of Texas claimed a sales tax exemption under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4). The completion date listed as August 31, 2025 appears to be a data entry discrepancy, as it precedes the award date of February 9, 2026.
