Frankies Restaurant And Catering, LLC

Frankies Restaurant and Catering, LLC, a woman-owned, minority-owned small business based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, delivers meal catering and food service to the Department of the Army as a prime contractor under Total Small Business set-asides. Structured as a sole proprietorship with Black American and woman ownership designations, the vendor competes exclusively under set-aside authority and holds no unsolicited GSA Schedules, GWACs, or IDIQs.

The vendor's federal footprint is concentrated in short-duration, tactical meal delivery for Army training and readiness operations. Recent awards include a $24,679 definitive contract (May 30–June 16, 2026) to provide breakfast and dinner delivery for the 2118th, 631st, and 616 units' annual training in Crestwood, Illinois, with place of performance in Robbins, Illinois; a $36,540 purchase order (February 3, 2026) supplying 4,640 meals (1,600 breakfast, 1,440 lunch, 1,600 dinner) for the 147th Readiness Training and Instrumentation Operations Security Basic Leader Course at the Defense Supply Center Columbus; and a $34,762 purchase order (April 19, 2026) for catered meals supporting the Tennessee Army National Guard's 777th Senior Military College at Camp Dodge, Milwaukee, Wisconsin (April 18–May 2, 2026). Additional work includes sub-$18,000 purchase orders for Fort McCoy meal services in support of the 108th and 34th Military Intelligence Battalions and the 126th Quartermaster work queue (October 2025), and a $10,418 Yellow Ribbon Event catering contract in Gillette, Wyoming (September 2025).

Customer concentration is singular and immobile. All seven awards target the Department of the Army (six awards, $104 thousand combined potential value) and the Tennessee Army National Guard (one award, $35 thousand), accounting for 100% of recent award activity. Combined potential value across the entire portfolio is $138 thousand, with $142 thousand obligated to date. Activity is modest and episodic — four awards in 2025, three in 2026 — driven by discrete training events and unit meal requirements rather than standing contract vehicles or recurring task-order streams. No subcontract work is present in the source data; Frankies operates as a pure prime on all awards. Work scope clusters into two NAICS categories: Caterers (7 awards) and two food-service PSC codes (Special Dietary Foods and Housekeeping-Food, 3–4 awards each). All contracts are firm fixed-price purchase orders with completion windows of two to eighteen days from award, reflecting the transactional and time-sensitive nature of military meal support.
