About the company
Frank M. Gargiulo & Son, Inc., doing business as Gargiulo Produce, supplies fresh and chilled produce to the Department of Defense as a prime contractor, issuing hundreds of small firm fixed-price delivery orders monthly under two active Indefinite Delivery Contracts with the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence division. The vendor is a Subchapter S corporation headquartered in Hillside, New Jersey, with no claimed SBA set-aside designations; it competes full-and-open on defense food service procurement, though one of its two DLA IDCs carries a small business set-aside designation.
Gargiulo Produce's federal footprint is almost entirely concentrated in military subsistence supply. Over the past two decades, the vendor has issued more than 412,000 delivery orders across produce categories including apples (both fresh and chilled), carrots, strawberries, lettuce, oranges, celery, pears, plums, blueberries, and watermelon, along with incidental dairy, bakery, and protein items. Recent orders exemplify the high-transaction-volume, low-per-order-value model: on June 18, 2026, a $6.58 thousand delivery order for fresh apples; on June 22, 2026, a $4.35 million order for fresh apples under a small business set-aside; on June 29, 2026, a $4.89 million order for fresh pears. Individual delivery order values range from under $100 to over $22,000. All contracts are firm fixed-price with completion dates typically matching award dates or within days thereof.
Customer concentration is extreme and unambiguous. The Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence division accounts for 411,731 awards (99.9% of the vendor's award count) and $1.24 billion in combined potential value (98.4% of total portfolio). The remaining customer base — the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons (Metropolitan Detention Center Brooklyn, Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix, and Otisville), the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service, and the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration — generates 313 awards worth approximately $8 million combined. This represents negligible competitive or revenue diversity; Gargiulo Produce functions as a single-customer producer for all practical purposes.
Gargiulo Produce holds two active DLA Troop Support Subsistence IDCs: a small business set-aside single-award contract (SPE30024DR771) valued at $4.9 million extending through April 14, 2029, and a non-set-aside single-award contract (SPE30024DS..., reference from award summaries suggests similar numbering convention) valued at $5.3 million extending through August 26, 2030. Older parent vehicles from the top-parent-vehicles block — SPE30022DS381, SPE30022DS753, SPE30017DS305, and related vehicles — collectively anchored over 260,000 prior delivery orders totaling approximately $280 million in combined potential value and appear to have reached or approached ultimate completion dates; the vendor's footprint shifted to the two currently active IDCs by 2025. The recompete cliff shows only one award completing in the next twenty-four months, worth $45 thousand — a signal that Gargiulo Produce faces minimal near-term recompete pressure on its two primary vehicles but faces material recompete risk at April 2029 (small business set-aside IDC) and August 2030 (non-set-aside IDC).
Award activity has remained substantial and consistent. The vendor issued approximately 20,000 delivery orders in 2026 year-to-date, following 71,000 orders in 2025 and 73,000 in 2024. Combined obligated spend across all awards totals $601.6 million (48% of the $1.26 billion combined potential value), reflecting the typical pattern of government delivery-order contracts where not all ceiling value is drawn annually. Gargiulo Produce has no subcontract footprint; 100% of its awards are prime contracts or IDCs. The vendor competes predominantly full-and-open on the DLA side despite holding one small business set-aside vehicle, suggesting it qualifies for and pursues both set-aside and unrestricted delivery orders against the same contract vehicles.
