About the company
Chicago Meat Authority Inc., a self-certified small disadvantaged business and for-profit Subchapter S corporation based in Chicago, Illinois, manufactures and supplies frozen boneless pork chops and pork loin roasts to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for domestic food assistance and nutrition programs as a prime contractor. The vendor operates exclusively on full-and-open federal contracts with no set-aside designations across its current award footprint, competing primarily on price as the sole selection criterion under firm fixed-price definitive contracts.
All twenty-three awards in the vendor's recent portfolio are prime contracts with the Department of Agriculture—100% USDA concentration—split across three operating units: the Food and Nutrition Service (12 awards, $15.4 million combined potential value), the Farm Service Agency Kansas City Commodity Office (5 awards, $14.3 million), and the Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office (5 awards, $8.6 million). The vendor has no subcontract footprint and places no work under government-wide vehicles or blanket purchase agreements; each award is a standalone definitive contract. Recent representative contracts include a $3.127 million June 2026 delivery order to the Food and Nutrition Service for frozen boneless pork chops (1,064,000 pounds in 40-pound packages) for delivery across nineteen U.S. states and four U.S. territories; a $1.819 million May 2025 contract for 2,000,010 pounds of frozen boneless pork chops (September 2025 completion); and a $3.158 million September 2022 award from the AMS Washington Office for frozen pork loin roasts (January 2023 completion). All contracts specify Chicago, Illinois as the place of performance.
Activity has been uneven—two awards in 2021, declining to one in 2022, then stabilizing at two to three awards per year from 2024 forward. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $38.6 million, slightly exceeding the $38.4 million combined potential value, indicating full invoicing against ceiling. Two awards with combined potential value $5.2 million face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, triggering recompete exposure in that window. The vendor's portfolio is narrowly specialized: all twenty-three contracts fall under NAICS 311611 (Animal Slaughtering except Poultry) and PSC 8905 (Meat, Poultry, and Fish). The commodity mix centers on frozen boneless pork chops in 40-pound packages and frozen pork loin roasts in 6/5-pound containers, procured for USDA domestic food donation programs and delivered to multiple federal distribution points nationwide.
