M Group Partners, L.L.C.

M Group Partners, L.L.C., a minority-owned, Subcontinent Asian American-owned limited liability company based in Happy Valley, Oregon, supplies packaged agricultural commodities — yellow split peas, lentils, pinto beans, green peas, and related dry legumes in 50-kilogram bags — to the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a prime contractor on full-and-open definitive contracts for domestic and international food assistance programs.

M Group Partners operates exclusively as a prime contractor, capturing 100 percent of its recent award footprint with no subcontract work. The vendor holds no seat on governmentwide contract vehicles, GWACs, or agency-wide IDIQs; all 355 awards in the recent portfolio are direct definitive contracts issued by USDA customer offices. The vendor's customer concentration is extreme and narrow by design. The Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency Kansas City Commodity Office accounts for 253 awards (71 percent of the portfolio) valued at $162.3 million, anchoring the relationship and dominating both award count and dollar share. The Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service (including the Food for Progress program) holds 100 awards, $30.6 million combined value. The Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service has placed 2 awards worth $467 thousand. These four USDA sub-agencies represent 100 percent of customer concentration, reflecting M Group Partners' complete dependence on USDA commodity procurement for food donations and international food assistance.

M Group Partners' capability portfolio is granular and commodity-focused. Representative contract work includes a $1.2 million definitive contract with the Foreign Agricultural Service for 50-kilogram bags of yellow split peas (June 4, 2026), a $1.04 million contract with the Foreign Agricultural Service for pinto beans in 50-kilogram bags (May 6, 2026), and a $3.7 million definitive contract with the Kansas City Commodity Office for yellow split peas (September 27, 2023). Across the entire portfolio, NAICS 311212 (Rice Milling) and PSC 8945 (Food, Oils and Fats) dominate; all other food manufacturing comprises 335 of 355 awards. The vendor's practice is to bid on individual commodity solicitations, each carrying fixed quantities and delivery locations specified by USDA, with performance ranging from Hastings, Nebraska and Plentywood, Montana to Walhalla, North Dakota and Chinook, Montana — multiple facilities reflect the logistics of regional commodity stockpiling for federal food programs.

Activity has declined from a peak of 43 awards in 2022, dropping to 26 in 2024, 9 in 2025, and 4 in the first half of 2026. This trajectory suggests either procurement consolidation on the USDA side, loss of competitive position in commodity bidding, or both. Recompete exposure in the next twenty-four months is minimal — only 1 award with $1.2 million combined potential value faces completion and renewal. The vendor's set-aside posture is mixed: some awards carry partial small-business set-aside or total small-business set-aside designations (leveraging minority-owned status), while the majority are full-and-open, non-set-aside procurements awarded on price and compliance with specification alone. M Group Partners has no named teaming arrangements or subcontractors in the footprint; the company sources, packages, and delivers commodities directly from regional facilities. Combined dollars obligated equal combined potential value at 100 percent — all awards are committed, not optioned.
