Fish and Seafood Retailers

NAICS Code 445250 encompasses Fish and Seafood Retailers, which are businesses primarily engaged in retailing fresh, frozen, and prepared fish and seafood products directly to consumers. These retailers typically operate specialized seafood markets, grocery store seafood departments, or seafood sections within larger supermarket chains. The category includes businesses that process, package, and sell various seafood items such as fish fillets, shellfish, smoked or cured fish products, and other marine-based food offerings.

The Federal Contract Awards for this NAICS category demonstrate a focus on food supply contracts for federal institutions, particularly correctional facilities. The most recent notable award is a $17,715.77 Firm Fixed Price Purchase Order from the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons to New England Food Brokerage Inc. This contract, awarded on July 1, 2024, covers food sustenance services for federal correctional facilities in the New England region during the 4th quarter of fiscal year 2024. The contract is not set aside for small businesses, though the awardee is a small business. Another contract in the dataset, while showing a $0.00 obligation, indicates potential for small business set-aside opportunities in seafood and meat procurement.

No specific Federal Contract Opportunities were provided in the current dataset for this NAICS code. The available information primarily highlights existing contract awards rather than pending solicitations for fish and seafood retail services.
