Conagra Brands, Inc.

Conagra Brands, Inc., operating as Conagra Foodservice Co and Conagra Foods Culinary Products, is a Chicago-based for-profit manufacturer and commodity food supplier that holds 902 federal awards as a prime contractor (100% prime, 0% sub), competing on full-and-open, unrestricted basis with no set-aside designations across its domestic food commodity footprint. The vendor has achieved $339.6 million in obligated dollars against a combined potential value of $38.9 million across recent awards, indicating substantial invoiced delivery against federal food assistance and defense logistics programs.

Conagra's federal work centers on food commodity procurement — specifically buttery spread light tubs (12–15 ounce units), flour milling products, fats and oils, and processed proteins — supplied under NAICS 311512 (Creamery Butter Manufacturing) and PSC 8945 (Food, Oils and Fats) designations for the past several years. The vendor's recent prime contract activity includes a $184,809.60 firm-fixed-price definitive contract awarded by USDA Food and Nutrition Service on September 22, 2026 for buttery spread light tubs serving domestic food assistance programs with place of performance in Indianapolis, Indiana; a $691,545.60 contract from January 15, 2026 for buttery spread delivery to Henderson, Colorado and Syracuse, New York; and a $172,886.40 award from December 4, 2025 for similar commodity supply. These contracts are representative of a consistent pattern: all carry firm-fixed-price structures, require U.S.-origin commodities grown and processed exclusively within the country per Agricultural Acquisition Regulation requirements, and target approximately 200,000 pounds of product per contract cycle.

Customer concentration sits heavily with the Department of Agriculture (USDA), which accounts for 89% of awards in the top-customer ranking. The USDA Food and Nutrition Service leads by potential value (113 awards, $18.3 million combined potential value), followed by the Agricultural Marketing Service's Livestock Poultry and Seed Program (9 awards, $7.2 million) and Specialty Crops Program (7 awards, $5.3 million). The USDA Farm Service Agency dominates by award count (529 awards) but carries minimal individual value per the portfolio data. The Defense Logistics Agency (68 awards) and Department of the Army (21 awards) represent secondary customer bases. Recent activity remains steady but modest — two awards in 2026, four in 2025, and four in 2024 — with only one award reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $185 thousand).

Conagra places task orders under several indefinite-delivery and basic-ordering vehicles: DLA13H91DS036 and DLA13H92D2854 carry 14 and 13 task orders respectively, DLA13H93D2871 carries 7, and a BOA (DECA0194G0103) carries 16 task orders. The vendor's commodity category concentration reflects its food manufacturing core: flour milling dominates at 161 awards; fats and oils refining and blending at 42; animal slaughtering at 29; and poultry processing at 21. By PSC, bakery and cereal products account for 632 awards, meat, poultry, and fish for 120, and food oils and fats for 68. Conagra also operates a $266,626 cooperative agreement awarded by USDA Agricultural Marketing Service under the Pandemic Market Volatility Assistance Program (CFDA #10.183) as of December 2021, through which the vendor distributed pandemic relief funds to Wisconsin dairy farmers. The vendor's corporate structure includes four named subsidiaries: Molinos De Puerto Rico, LLC (Hispanic American minority-owned), Lamb Weston Inc., Kennedy Endeavors, Incorporated, and Odom's Tennessee Pride Sausage, Inc., expanding the parent's portfolio across flour milling, potato products, and processed meat categories.
