NAICS 311911, Roasted Nuts and Peanut Butter Manufacturing, encompasses the industrial production of roasted nuts and peanut butter products. This category involves processing raw nuts into consumer-ready products through roasting, grinding, and packaging operations. Manufacturers in this sector transform agricultural commodities like peanuts into standardized food products suitable for direct consumer consumption or institutional food service distribution.

The federal contract awards in this category predominantly feature procurement by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service for domestic food assistance programs. Awards range from approximately $30,000 to nearly $4 million, with contract durations typically spanning 3-6 months. Frequent awardees include small businesses like Komal Herbals, Algood Food Co, American Blanching Company, Sunshine Peanut Company, and Clements Foods Co. Many contracts are partially set aside for small businesses and involve supplying roasted peanuts, peanut butter in various packaging formats (1.1 oz packages, 12/16 oz jars), and related nut products. Delivery locations span the continental United States, with performance primarily occurring at contractors' manufacturing facilities.

Recent federal contract opportunities issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service focus on procuring peanut products for domestic food assistance programs. These solicitations seek raw shelled peanuts, peanut products, and related agricultural commodities, with specific requirements for U.S.-grown and processed products. The opportunities indicate potential small business set-asides, including service-disabled veteran-owned and HUBZone business preferences. Typical solicitations specify detailed commodity specifications, packaging requirements, delivery schedules, and quality standards, with delivery periods ranging from January to March 2025 and quantities potentially exceeding 4 million pounds of product.
