This is a memorandum documenting food service vendor awards for United States Penitentiary Canaan under Solicitation 15B21526PR000222. The facility received 34 responses from small businesses in response to a Request for Quote for food service items covering the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2026. All quotes submitted by the May 29, 4:00 PM EST deadline were evaluated, and awards were made to responsible offerors with satisfactory or above past performance records based on best value criteria rather than lowest price alone, in accordance with FAR 12.203.

The awards encompass 101 line items across meat products, prepared meals, produce, dry goods, condiments, and supplies. Major awards include 14,000 pounds of beef roast to Advanced Commodities at $3.88 per pound ($54,250 total) and 30,000 pounds of chicken leg quarters to Apex Food Group at $0.62 per pound ($18,720 total). Halal and kosher meal options were awarded to National Food Group and LA Foods LLC at unit prices ranging from $3.16 to $6.07 per meal. Other significant vendors include Shaver Foods LLC, MINA, Kingsland Prime Meats, and Mullen Marketing. Awards exceeding the $15,000 Micro Purchase Threshold will be issued as Firm-Fixed Price Purchase Orders, while awards under $15,000 will be processed as Firm-Fixed Price Government Purchase Card transactions through the local food services department. The memorandum was signed by Chris Ficken, Contract Specialist, on June 12, 2026.
