About the company
Anchor Industries Inc., a Subchapter S corporation and for-profit manufacturer of frame and fabric products based in Evansville, Indiana, supplies fire shelters, modular tents, tent components, and related textile equipment to the Department of Defense and civilian agencies exclusively as a prime contractor on small-business-set-aside purchase orders and definitive contracts. The company competes across the full range of its work under total small business set-asides, with no subcontracting footprint and no presence on government-wide vehicles or IDIQs outside of DLA supply schedules.
Anchor Industries' portfolio is heavily concentrated in two product lines and one customer. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Construction and Equipment division accounts for 59 awards totaling $17.8 million in combined potential value, representing 37% of all awards by count and 37% of potential value. The second-largest customer, DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles, accounts for 21 awards worth $5.9 million. Together, these two DLA sub-commands represent 80 awards (22% of the 359-award footprint) and $23.7 million (50% of combined potential value). The Department of the Army's Recruiting Command and a broader Army customer base account for roughly 40 awards with $385 thousand combined value. Work is organized around two primary product service codes: Tents and Tarpaulins (166 awards) and Safety and Rescue Equipment (115 awards), aligned with NAICS categories including Fabric Coating Mills, Canvas and Related Product Mills, and Textile Product Mills. Representative recent awards include a $5.4 million DLA Troop Support purchase order for 14,679 fire shelter units (July 2023), a $3.1 million order for 10,300 Shelter Fire M-2002 units (August 2022), a $238 thousand Army Recruiting Command purchase order for Navi-Trac modular tents (January 2024), and a $132 thousand Department of State Bureau of African Affairs order for tents for mission use (September 2025). A $245.5 thousand DLA fire shelter contract and a $27 thousand Army Recruiting Command Navi-Trac tent component order closed in March 2026.
Anchor Industries operates primarily through DLA supply schedules. The largest parent vehicle is Indefinite Delivery Contract GS07FN0058, which carries 68 task orders valued at $10.1 million. Federal Supply Schedule GS07F5954R accounts for 39 task orders ($681 thousand), and Indefinite Delivery Contract SPM1C106D6005 carries 15 task orders ($563 thousand). These vehicles provide the infrastructure for recurring small purchases rather than strategic or high-value work.
Activity has declined materially. Awards numbered 10 per year in 2022, dropping to 8 in 2023, 7 in 2024, 3 in 2025, and 1 through March 2026. The vendor operates with a subsidiary, AE Tent, LLC, which the Department of State documentation identifies as operating under the trade name Economy Tent International and bringing a documented history of supplying textile-based equipment to federal agencies since 2001. Combined obligated dollars across the entire footprint ($89.3 million) exceed combined potential value ($47.6 million) by 88%, indicating historical invoicing well above recent ceiling estimates — a characteristic of mature, long-running supply relationships that have completed and been re-flowed through the same vehicles multiple times. The vendor has worked with 37 distinct customer agencies across the footprint, but concentration in DLA and Army Recruiting Command represents the dominant revenue stream and strategic focus.
