Estralita's, Inc.

Estralita's, Inc., a woman-owned, Black American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Westwego, Louisiana, provides catered meal services to the Louisiana Army National Guard and the Department of the Army as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The firm is structured as a Subchapter S Corporation and operates as a self-certified minority-owned and woman-owned small business, competing exclusively under set-aside vehicles across its federal footprint.

Estralita's capability portfolio centers on catered meals for military training and operational events — breakfast, lunch, and dinner service delivery to support Individual Duty Training (IDT) sessions, routine weekend drill periods, pre-mobilization activities, and emergency response operations. Recent task orders exemplify the work: a $4,171.50 BPA call from the Department of the Army in April 2026 for 180 lunch meals delivered to Westwego, Louisiana; a $6,750 purchase order in May 2024 for 150 catered dinner meals supporting pre-mobilization activity; a $5,400 dinner-meal purchase order in July 2024; and a $3,000 breakfast-and-lunch order in October 2024. Activity shows seasonal and demand-driven patterns, with ten awards in 2024 followed by five in 2025 and four through mid-2026.

Customer concentration is tightly focused on two Army entities. The Louisiana Army National Guard holds seven awards carrying $1.7 million in combined potential value, anchored by three active single-award Blanket Purchase Agreements: a $220,000 BPA (August 2025–July 2027) for catered boxed meals across the Southeast region; a $240,000 FY 2025 BPA (August 2024–July 2025); and an earlier $250,000 BPA (July 2023–June 2024). The Department of the Army proper issued eighteen awards valued at $34 thousand combined potential value, representing smaller-dollar BPA calls. The two rankings diverge sharply — the Louisiana National Guard dominates by potential value ($1.7 million from 7 awards), while the Department of the Army dominates by award count (18 awards), reflecting the structural difference between large IDVs placed by the Guard and smaller recurring task orders placed by Army units.

Estralita's sits on four active Blanket Purchase Agreements as the single-award holder: BPA W912NR25AA003 (eight task orders, $9 thousand combined value); BPA W912NR24AA004 (four task orders, $6 thousand combined value); BPA W912NR23A0005 (eight task orders, $8 thousand combined value, now expired as of June 2024); and BPA W912NR20A0028 (one task order, $16 thousand combined value). All work is performed in Louisiana — primarily Westwego and New Orleans. Combined potential value across the full portfolio is $1.8 million, with only $49 thousand obligated to date, reflecting the indefinite-delivery structure of the underlying BPAs and the firm-fixed-price nature of individual task orders. Estralita's operates purely as a prime and carries no subcontract relationships in this footprint.
