About John Hofmeister & Son Inc.
John Hofmeister & Son Inc., doing business as HOF Haus, is an SBA-certified HUBZone manufacturer of frozen pork and turkey commodities based in Chicago, Illinois, that operates as a prime contractor exclusively to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for domestic food assistance programs. The vendor competes full-and-open on all recent awards with no set-asides applied to most contracts, though HUBZone set-aside designations appear on roughly 10% of the contract portfolio and partial small-business set-asides on a smaller share. HOF Haus is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation structured as a manufacturer of goods; the vendor has maintained continuous federal registration since at least 2003 and holds primary NAICS classifications under Animal (except Poultry) Slaughtering (311611) and Poultry Processing (311615), with all work filed under PSC 8905 (Meat, Poultry, and Fish).
Customer concentration is extreme and single-agency dependent. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 167 of 206 awards in the portfolio (81% of count) and $212.6 million of the $317.4 million combined potential value (67% of dollars). The remaining identified USDA buying offices—Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office (21 awards, $55.5 million), Farm Service Agency Kansas City Commodity Office (5 awards, $22.4 million), and Agricultural Marketing Service base (13 awards, $1.8 million)—bring the total USDA footprint to 206 awards covering 92% of combined potential value. Across this entire base, HOF Haus operates exclusively as a prime contractor; no sub-award activity appears in the portfolio.
Recent award activity remains steady but modest. The vendor received four awards in 2026 year-to-date, nine in 2025, eleven in 2024, seven in 2023, and nine in 2022. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal: only two awards with combined potential value of $3.3 million face ultimate completion before mid-2028. Representative prime work includes a $3.1 million firm-fixed-price contract awarded September 19, 2025, for water-added frozen pork ham in 12/3 pound cartons supporting the National School Lunch Program and Emergency Food Assistance Program; a $3.6 million Partial Small Business contract from July 25, 2024, for various pork ham configurations; a $2.6 million Partial Small Business contract from June 5, 2026, for smoked pit ham and water-added ham products; and a $1.95 million HUBZone set-aside contract from November 16, 2022, for smoked sliced frozen turkey ham. All work is performed at the vendor's Chicago production facility and delivered to distribution points across the continental United States, Puerto Rico, and Guam; all commodities comply with Agricultural Acquisition Regulation requirements mandating U.S.-grown and U.S.-processed products. The vendor has accumulated over $317 million in combined potential value across 243 federal contracts since 2002, positioning it as a specialized commodity supplier with deep institutional knowledge of USDA food assistance procurement cycles and requirements.
