Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) is soliciting quotes for paper hand towels, Tork brand, designated as a set-aside for Metro-approved small business enterprises only, with quotes due October 13, 2026. This is a restricted competition limited to SBE vendors.
The scope specifies Tork USA model 105065 — a no-substitute single-source specification — peak service continuous dispensing hand towels.
