Aqua Gulf Supply Chain Solutions, LLC

Aqua Gulf Supply Chain Solutions, LLC, a Jacksonville, Florida-based freight logistics firm, operates as a prime contractor providing containerized freight transportation for U.S. Department of Agriculture food donation distribution, competing exclusively in full-and-open procurements with no set-aside designations across 216 definitive contracts spanning April 2025 through August 2026.

The company's federal footprint is concentrated entirely on short-haul, high-volume containerized freight work in support of USG food donations. Aqua Gulf delivers dry freight services using 40-foot and 53-foot non-refrigerated containers and refrigerated reefer containers in 40-foot and 45-foot configurations for both frozen and chilled products. Representative work includes firm fixed-price definitive contracts for 40-foot dry container freight transportation to multiple Puerto Rico locations (Caguas, Ponce, Vega Alta, Carolina, Bayamon, Arecibo, Mayaguez, and others) and mainland sites including Lodi, California, with individual contract values ranging from $4,120 to $6,543 and performance periods of two to four weeks. The company operates as sole prime contractor with no subcontracting arrangements on all awards.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Agriculture accounts for 100% of awards across two distinct customer entities. The Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office (122 awards, $528 thousand combined potential value) and the Food and Nutrition Service (94 awards, $431 thousand combined potential value) split the portfolio evenly by award count but with slight dollar variation. Both entities treat Aqua Gulf as a reliable provider of last-mile food donation logistics, awarding contracts through open competition with no preferential set-asides.

Activity has been front-loaded. Aqua Gulf secured 132 awards in 2025 (its first year of federal activity after SAM registration in February 2025) and 84 awards in 2026 year-to-date. The company faces no material recompete cliff: only nine awards with completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $41 thousand. The full portfolio of $960 thousand combined potential value is 100% obligated. All 216 awards are categorized under NAICS 483111 (Deep Sea Freight Transportation) and PSC 4630 (Transportation/Travel/Relocation—Transportation: Vessel Freight), indicating a tightly specialized operational focus with no diversification into other logistics or supply chain segments. The company competes directly in the federal marketplace without SBA designations or set-aside protections, positioning it as a full-and-open competitor in a narrowly defined freight niche.
