Snack and Nonalcoholic Beverage Bars

The NAICS code 722515 covers Snack and Nonalcoholic Beverage Bars, focusing on establishments primarily engaged in preparing and serving beverages and snacks for immediate consumption. These establishments include specialty beverage providers such as coffee bars, smoothie and juice bars, and other quick-service beverage and light food venues. The category encompasses businesses that provide bottled water, sports drinks, ice products, and other nonalcoholic beverage offerings to various markets, including federal government agencies.

Federal Contract Awards under this NAICS code predominantly feature purchase orders for bottled water, sports drinks, and ice products, primarily supporting federal agencies like the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service and Department of Defense. Contract values typically range from $10,000 to $150,000, with most awards being firm fixed-price purchase orders and completion dates within 6-24 months. Frequently awarded entities include small businesses such as Cascade Ice LLC, High Sierra Industries Inc., and regional food service distributors. The awards consistently demonstrate support for emergency response operations, particularly wildland firefighting efforts, with no specific set-aside designations being utilized in the reviewed contracts.

The most recent federal contract opportunity within this NAICS code is a solicitation by the Department of Air Force Materiel Command for a Robotic Coffee Kiosk at the National Museum of the United States Air Force. The opportunity is a total small business set-aside with a size standard of $22.5 million, seeking a comprehensive coffee service system capable of serving 50 beverages per hour with advanced technological features. The solicitation requires a detailed technical response, includes specific equipment specifications, and mandates installation at Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio, with a 230-day performance period and requirements for digital menu boards, payment integration, and operator training.
