About this opportunity
The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence is conducting market research to identify potential suppliers for wet pack fruit components used in Meal, Ready-to-Eat (MRE) programs. The procurement involves shelf-stable fruit items including fruit purees (banana, pumpkin, apple/strawberry/carrot varieties), various applesauces (with raspberry, carbohydrate-enhanced, mango and peach), and apple pieces in spiced sauce, all requiring a 3-year shelf life. These items are classified as mobilization essential, making them critical for supporting warfighter missions during contingencies and emergency peacetime requirements. Interested vendors must provide company information, business size details, contact information, previous production experience, and capabilities for storing and delivering the specified fruit components. The sources sought responses are due by October 24, 2025, and should be submitted via email to Jayson.1.Marbach@dla.mil.
This opportunity does not utilize any set-aside designation, making it open to all qualified contractors regardless of business size. The document does not identify any current incumbents or existing contractors for these fruit component supplies. No award values, budget ranges, or specific quantities are disclosed in this pre-solicitation notice, as this is strictly a market research effort with no commitment to future procurement. The items fall under NAICS code 311422 (Specialty Canning) and PSC code 8915 (Fruits And Vegetables), indicating the specialized nature of the food processing requirements. The timeline for potential future procurement activities has not been established at this stage of the market research process.
