The State of Texas, Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division (TDCJ-ID) awarded a term contract to JK Snacks LLC, a Georgia-based supplier, for the delivery of dehydrated, meatless instant chili products. The contract, designated Term 26213492, was awarded on March 10, 2026, with a cumulative value of $100,731.60. The specified line item comprises 1,620 cases of kosher-certified meatless chili, with each case containing 24 items of 12 ounces per item at a unit price of $62.18 per case. The product is classified under National Institute of Governmental Purchasing (NIGP) Code 39379 and carries a minimum order requirement of 400 cases per shipment.

Delivery performance is directed to the Huntsville Commissary Warehouse in Huntsville, Texas, which serves as the designated place of performance for this commissary food products procurement. The purchase order was processed by TDCJ purchaser Guadalupe Gomez, with scheduled delivery on March 24, 2026, subject to a 14-day allowed receipt and order window. The State of Texas claims exemption from all federal and state/city sales taxes under Texas Tax Code Section 151.309(4) in connection with this acquisition of tangible personal property for exclusive state use. The contract completion date is listed as August 31, 2025, though this predates the award date and likely reflects a data recording discrepancy.
