Inn Foods, Inc.

Inn Foods Inc., operating as US Food Services, procures and delivers frozen and canned agricultural commodities exclusively to the U.S. Department of Agriculture's food assistance programs as a prime contractor—100% of its recent 3,182 federal awards are primes, with no subcontractor relationships. The company is a for-profit subsidiary of The VPS Companies Inc., headquartered in Watsonville, California, specializing in frozen fruits, vegetables, and potato products grown, processed, and prepared exclusively in the United States for compliance with Agricultural Acquisition Regulation requirements.

Inn Foods competes predominantly under full-and-open procurements, though several of its active indefinite delivery contracts carry partial small business set-asides. The company's capability portfolio centers on frozen commodity supply: frozen vegetables (carrots, green beans, corn, peas, mixed vegetables) in bulk cartons and institutional packaging; frozen berries (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries) in multiple configurations including individually quick frozen slices and whole fruit; frozen potato products including dehydrated flakes and specialty items such as vegetable stir-fry blends and asparagus. Representative recent work includes a $13.9 million partial small-business-set-aside definitive contract (May 2025) for frozen strawberries in three product configurations from USDA Agricultural Marketing Service; a $42.4 million partial-set-aside indefinite delivery contract (April 2026) for frozen vegetables under Food and Nutrition Service; and a $7.8 million partial-set-aside IDIQ (April 2026) for frozen strawberry commodities. All awards support the National School Lunch Program and domestic food assistance initiatives, with delivery locations spanning the continental United States, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii.

Customer concentration is extreme and single-agency dependent. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 339 awards valued at $1.97 billion in combined potential value—75% of the vendor's total award footprint. The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office accounts for an additional 364 awards ($410.8 million), and the Agricultural Marketing Service Specialty Crops Program for 482 awards ($203.4 million). Together, USDA components represent 79% of total awards by count and 99% by combined potential value. The vendor has placed no material volume with other federal agencies; Defense Logistics Agency represents 1,280 awards but these are likely pass-through registrations from USDA commodity procurement activity rather than direct contracting relationships.

The vendor holds at least six active indefinite delivery contracts with Food and Nutrition Service and Agricultural Marketing Service. These include a $42.4 million partial-small-business-set-aside multiple-award IDIQ through September 2027; a $19.2 million no-set-aside multiple-award vehicle through September 2026 for frozen vegetables; a $27.6 million partial-small-business-set-aside IDIQ (October 2024 through September 2025) that generated over $12 million in delivery orders; a $11.7 million no-set-aside multiple-award IDC through September 2025; and additional vehicles valued between $912 thousand and $11 million. Task-order activity shows consistent volume: the largest recent single delivery order was $999.4 million (November 2025) for mixed frozen vegetables; other orders ranged from $23 thousand to $2.6 million. Place of performance is decentralized across distribution facilities in Brockport, New York; Fairwater, Wisconsin; Lake Odessa, Michigan; Boardman and Brooks, Oregon; Ellensburg and Weston, Washington; Bakersfield and Oxnard, California; and other locations supporting nationwide commodity distribution.

Activity has grown year over year—68 awards in 2022 to 133 in 2025—with 24 awards (combined potential value $16 million) completing within the next 24 months, presenting moderate recompete exposure for fiscal 2026 and early 2027. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor on all federal work, with no identified subcontractor relationships or parent-company corporate structure complications affecting contract visibility or performance accountability. SAM.gov registration has been continuous since March 2004.
