About the company
Gold Coast Produce Inc., a minority-owned, woman-owned small business based in Gurnee, Illinois, supplies mixed fresh produce commodities to the USDA under total small business set-asides as a prime contractor on definitive fixed-price contracts. The company is self-certified as a small disadvantaged business and Asian-Pacific American owned, competing exclusively under small business carve-outs rather than full-and-open procurements.
Gold Coast Produce operates as a pure commodity supplier to federal food assistance programs. The company delivers mixed fresh produce—primarily tomatoes, lettuce, and carrots—to support the USDA's Temporary Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP), National School Lunch Program, and broader domestic food assistance initiatives. Weekly deliveries typically range from 300 to 6,000 pounds, with distribution extending across 38 states and territories to over 100 federal distribution points. All commodities are sourced domestically and delivered on an FOB destination basis. Representative work includes a $690,290 definitive contract awarded by USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service on March 3, 2023 for mixed fresh produce delivery through August 31, 2023; a $256,689 contract from the Food and Nutrition Service (February 20, 2025 through June 30, 2025) for approximately 2 billion pounds of mixed fresh produce; and a $318,526 contract awarded August 25, 2026 (most recent) for commodity delivery through December 31, 2026. All contracts fall under NAICS 311991 (Perishable Prepared Food Manufacturing) and PSC 8915 (Fruits and Vegetables).
Customer concentration is entirely within the Department of Agriculture. The Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 16 awards valued at $2.3 million combined potential value, while USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office holds three awards worth $1 million combined. Across 19 total awards since June 2022, Gold Coast Produce has secured $3.4 million in combined potential value, with 100 percent of that amount obligated. Activity has remained relatively flat—three to five awards annually—with only one contract ($319 thousand) reaching completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. The company holds no federal vehicles, GSA Schedules, or BPAs and operates exclusively on spot-buy definitive contracts. As a pure-commodity supplier with no subcontract footprint, Gold Coast Produce remains narrowly positioned within USDA food assistance procurement and does not extend into broader federal IT, logistics, or managed-services markets.
