Commissary Population and Sales.pdf

This is a commissary population and sales report for the Southwest Virginia Regional Jail Authority, which operates four jail facilities across Virginia. The report documents inmate populations, sales activity, and product requirements for commissary services across four facilities: Abingdon (750 monthly average population), Duffield (450 monthly average population), Haysi (260 monthly average population), and Tazewell (160 monthly average population). The facilities generate significant commissary revenue through cart sales, general commissary sales, and indigent kit distributions. March 2026 combined commissary and cart sales totaled approximately $89,570, with total commissary deposits for FY2025 reaching $2,387,117.91. Indigent kits are distributed bi-weekly to inmates and contain essential hygiene and personal care items including soap, deodorant, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, writing supplies, and envelopes.

The indigent kit program is a core service component, with annual estimates of 5,400 kits needed at Abingdon, 4,000 at Duffield, 3,600 at Haysi, and 2,400 at Tazewell. The commissary provider selected through the RFPO process must be capable of servicing all four facilities and managing the operational requirements associated with inmate deposits, sales transactions, inventory management, and indigent kit production and distribution. The financial data indicates substantial ongoing revenue generation from commissary operations, requiring a provider with demonstrated capacity to handle multiple facility locations and consistent transaction volumes across diverse inmate populations.
