AGR-DQSF- Ice Concession

The Illinois Department of Agriculture is seeking a vendor to supply bagged ice to the 2019 DuQuoin State Fair from August 23 through September 2, 2019. The successful vendor will be provided a designated rental location on the fairgrounds to supply and stock ice merchandisers daily, with an expected supply of approximately 2,000 bags of 22-pound sealed ice. The vendor must agree to a flat fee of $1,000 to the DuQuoin State Fair, with a $500 non-refundable deposit due upon execution and the remaining $500 due by September 2, 2019. The vendor will be required to staff the rental location from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. throughout the fair. Pricing must be provided for ice sold to State Fair operations as well as ice sold to concessionaires, and the award will go to the lowest cost vendor that meets all specifications. The quoted prices must be valid for 90 days and include all shipping and handling charges, with no price increases accepted. The agreement is contingent upon the availability of sufficient funds, and the Department reserves the right to reject any or all offers.

There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond to this opportunity. The current or incumbent vendor is not specified. The total award value or budget range is not provided, as the contract is for the supply of ice during the 2019 DuQuoin State Fair.
