This is a Request for Quote (RFQ) from the Federal Bureau of Prisons for Danbury FCI for the procurement of vegetable products during the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2026.

Dry storage items include canned vegetables such as carrots (168 units), corn (224 units), green beans (168 units), mixed vegetables (112 units), peas (168 units), and spinach (168 units), all in 6/#10 can configurations.

All items must comply with applicable food standards as referenced in the Code of Federal Regulations, including 21 CFR standards for identity and FDA requirements. Bidders must specify whether they are providing items in cans or pouches. The RFQ includes blank fields for bidders to complete item pricing and total pricing calculations. No response deadline, award date, or budget ceiling is explicitly stated in this document. The solicitation is open to any qualified bidder under the "Any" bid group designation.
