About this opportunity

The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA) has issued a Limited / Sole Source Justification Notice for the supply of fresh fruits and vegetables (FF&V) to multiple Military Bases in the Republic of South Korea. The procurement covers a 12-month base period from August 24, 2025, through August 23, 2026, with four additional 12-month option periods, representing a total potential five-year contract. The total estimated contract value is $33,980,129.00, funded through the Resale Stock Fund Activity, Defense-Wide Working Capital Fund. The justification stems from a previously cancelled Blanket Purchase Agreement following a GAO-sustained bid protest, with five interested firms identified: E.K.K. Investments, LLC; Coastal Pacific Food Distributors, Inc.; Giant, Inc.; Shinsegae Food, Inc.; and Pacific Unlimited, Inc. The contract (HQC00625R0001) will be publicized on sam.gov, with the solicitation sent to the five identified parties, and the contracting officer plans to use market research and comparative pricing to ensure fair and reasonable pricing in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation guidelines.
