About the company
Derstines Inc., doing business as Derstine's, is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation located in Sellersville, Pennsylvania, specializing in food distribution and procurement. The company has established itself as a significant vendor for federal agencies, primarily providing food-related products such as Meal Ready to Eat (MRE) rations, food boxes, and non-perishable food items. Derstines Inc. is registered in SAM.gov, with its current registration valid through March 4, 2026, and has demonstrated capability in supporting federal emergency response and international program needs.
The company has secured multiple federal contract awards primarily focused on food product delivery, with a significant emphasis on COVID-19 response efforts. Derstines Inc. has received contracts from agencies including the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service and the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement. Notable contract awards include a $63.95 million delivery order for combination boxes during the COVID-19 pandemic, a $37.86 million contract for precooked meat boxes and dairy products, and several smaller contracts for MRE rations ranging from $10,379 to $32,890. These contracts have consistently been firm fixed price delivery orders or purchase orders, without specific small business set-aside designations.
Derstines Inc. has received at least one federal grant award directly related to COVID-19 response. The grant, awarded by the Agricultural Marketing Service on January 3, 2022, supported costs incurred by food processors, distributors, farmers markets, and producers in responding to the coronavirus pandemic. The grant covered expenses between January 27, 2020, and December 31, 2021, including workplace safety measures, market adaptations, facility retrofitting, transportation, worker housing, and medical expenses. The grant was structured as a project grant with a completion date of January 2, 2023.
The company holds two significant federal contract indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDV) vehicles. A Federal Supply Schedule contract with the General Services Administration, valid through March 22, 2028, allows Derstines Inc. to provide non-perishable foods, waste and recycling containers, aluminum sheets, and order-level materials. This multiple-award contract has already facilitated delivery orders from the Department of State's Bureau of International Narcotics Law Enforcement and the Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service.
