LOOP NOW TECHNOLOGIES, INC. dba FIREWORK

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services is pursuing a single-source procurement with Loop Now Technologies, Inc. dba Firework for the "Fresh from Florida" Grocery Retailer Marketing Program. This procurement involves brand promotion and sales activities specifically focused on shoppable video and livestreaming services to be implemented on The Fresh Market's website, with the primary objective of promoting Florida agricultural products. The contract will run from its execution date through June 30, 2026, with a posted date of 06/16/2025 and a final day for receiving information of 07/08/2025. Prospective vendors who believe they can provide similar commodities or services are required to submit relevant information to the designated contact by July 8, 2025. The vendor must be a non-paid member of the "Fresh From Florida" Industry Membership program and align with Florida Statute 571.2, which supports agricultural promotional campaigns. The procurement process allows for potential alternative vendors to demonstrate their capability to provide equivalent services before a final single-source determination is made.

The contract opportunity appears to be restricted to vendors specifically capable of providing shoppable video and livestreaming services in the agricultural marketing sector, with Loop Now Technologies currently positioned as the exclusive vendor for The Fresh Market. The estimated contract value is approximately $150,000.00, with a total potential amount of up to $200,000.00. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The procurement is specifically focused on Leon County, Florida, and is part of a broader initiative to promote Florida's agricultural commodities and value-added products through interactive digital marketing content. The single-source nature of the procurement suggests that Loop Now Technologies has unique capabilities or an exclusive relationship that makes them the preferred vendor for these specific marketing services. The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services will review any information submitted by potential alternative vendors and make a final determination about the single-source procurement through the Vendor Information Portal, in accordance with Section 120.57(3) of Florida Statutes.
