ABX Group Inc.

ABX Group Inc., a for-profit manufacturer of military apparel and equipment based in Long Beach, California, supplies military gaiters, gloves, and related clothing items to the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support as a prime contractor (72% of recent awards) and subcontractor. The vendor competes in full-and-open procurement with no set-aside designations across its prime footprint, except for a single small-business set-aside purchase order for gloves in December 2022.

ABX Group's customer base is entirely concentrated with one agency. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles branch accounts for all 18 awards in the source data, representing $8.1 million in combined potential value across prime and sub work. This monolithic customer concentration reflects ABX Group's role as a specialized textile manufacturer serving a single, narrowly defined defense supply chain. The vendor holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (SPE1C123D0057) valued at $4.865 million and running from July 2023 through July 2026, under which it has issued eleven delivery orders totaling $3.1 million in combined potential value for gaiter production. ABX Group has generated a second parent vehicle, a Blanket Purchase Agreement (SPE1C119A0001), which has issued three additional task orders.

Representative prime work includes a $433,875 delivery order issued March 25, 2026, for military gaiters with completion targeted for December 28, 2026; a $235,200 delivery order from June 25, 2025, for approximately 2.55 million gaiter units; and a $166,231 small-business set-aside purchase order from December 2022 for men's and women's gloves with completion in May 2023. Delivery orders under the parent IDC range from approximately $166,000 to $472,500, with cumulative production requirements of 2.55 to 2.57 million gaiter units to support military operational readiness.

Award activity increased from one in 2022 to six in 2024, then declined to four in 2025 and two in 2026 year to date. Of the eighteen total awards, only one with combined potential value of $434,000 faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal near-term recompete exposure on the existing prime contract portfolio. ABX Group subcontracts under Atlantic Diving Supply, Inc. on five sub-awards for related apparel items including gaiters, mitten shells, and construction aprons, all issued to DLA Troop Support between December 2023 and August 2024. Obligated dollars total $3.6 million (45% of combined potential value), reflecting the firm-fixed-price, delivery-order execution model on the parent IDC. The vendor's capability portfolio is narrowly specialized: apparel knitting mills and cut-and-sew manufacturing for military clothing accessories, with primary NAICS concentration in apparel knitting mills (12 awards) and apparel accessories manufacturing (5 awards).
