The Texas Juvenile Justice Department (Agency 644) awarded a term contract to Labatt Food Service LLC, a San Antonio-based food service contractor, for the supply of packaged snack and cereal food products. The contract, designated as Term 26213593, was issued on March 10, 2026, with a total contract value of $963.96. The purchase order encompasses six line items of individual packaged snacks and nutritional bars, including raspberry-flavored nutritional bars, rice cereal and marshmallow bars, nacho cheese tortilla chips, hot-flavored baked chips, peanut butter sandwich crackers, and cheddar cheese-flavored crackers, with quantities ranging from three to four cases per item. All products are sourced under statewide delivery contracts and destined for delivery to the agency's warehouse facility in Giddings, Texas, with a scheduled delivery date of March 17, 2026.

The line items reflect standard institutional food service procurement for juvenile justice facilities, with unit prices ranging from $28.24 to $63.08 per case.
