About Flowers Foods Inc.

Flowers Foods Inc. is a for-profit manufacturer of bakery goods that supplies fresh bread and bakery products to the federal government through contracts primarily with the Defense Logistics Agency and the Department of Veterans Affairs. The company operates through multiple subsidiaries, including Flowers Baking Co. of Norfolk, LLC and Flowers Baking Co Of Thomasville LLC, which serve as the primary federal contractors. As a parent entity registered in SAM.gov since July 2009, Flowers Foods Inc. maintains an active presence in the federal contracting marketplace, specializing in the provision of fresh bakery items to support military feeding programs and federal agency subsistence operations.

Through its subsidiary operations, Flowers Foods Inc. has received numerous delivery order awards for fresh bread and bakery products, with the vast majority of contracts funded by the Defense Logistics Agency Subsistence division to support military subsistence requirements. The company has delivered an extensive array of products including white bread, honey wheat bread, whole wheat bread, cinnamon raisin bread, hamburger rolls, frankfurter rolls, hoagie/submarine rolls, dinner rolls, and plain bagels. Delivery orders have ranged from minimal values of approximately twenty-five dollars to substantial awards exceeding two thousand dollars, with contracts consistently structured as firm fixed-price arrangements without set-aside designations, indicating open competition. The Norfolk, Virginia subsidiary has been the primary performer for Defense Logistics Agency awards serving the Tidewater, Norfolk, and York River regions of Virginia, while the Thomasville, Georgia subsidiary has fulfilled orders for the Metcalf, Georgia region. Beginning in October 2025, the company received multiple sequential delivery orders, demonstrating sustained federal demand for its fresh bakery products to support military dining facilities and ship-based operations. Additionally, the company has received awards from the Department of Veterans Affairs, specifically from Veterans Integrated Service Network 6, for the provision of fresh bread and bakery products to support VA medical center operations.

Flowers Foods Inc. holds a significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicle contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence division, specifically the "Market Fresh" division, valued at $4.9 million with an effective period running from July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2029. This single-award IDV authorizes the company to supply fresh bread and bakery items to military customers throughout the Tidewater, Norfolk, and York River areas of Virginia, enabling rapid fulfillment of task orders for both ship-based and land-based military installations. The Flowers Baking Co Of Thomasville LLC subsidiary maintains a separate Indefinite Delivery Contract valued at $675,000 covering the Metcalf, Georgia region through November 2027, with another IDV valued at $4.9 million covering a broader Southeast region through October 2029.
