Morabito Baking Co Inc.

Morabito Baking Co Inc., a veteran-owned, small disadvantaged business manufacturer headquartered in East Norriton, Pennsylvania, supplies fresh baked goods—bread, rolls, cupcakes, and dairy products—to federal correctional institutions and Veterans Affairs medical facilities as a prime contractor across 166 recent awards. The company competes predominantly under total small business set-asides, with nearly all prime awards carrying set-aside designations across the Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons and Department of Veterans Affairs portfolios.

Morabito's capability portfolio centers on commercial bakery production (NAICS 311812, PSC 8920). Representative work includes quarterly bread supply contracts to Federal Correctional Complex Allenwood (multiple awards ranging from $42.8 thousand to $94.9 thousand), weekly fresh bread and cupcake deliveries to Federal Correctional Institution Schuylkill ($8.1 thousand to $36.3 thousand per quarter), and a recurring supply arrangement with United States Penitentiary Lewisburg spanning bread, rolls, and subsistence items ($13.2 thousand to $31.8 thousand per award). Products consistently carry strict freshness requirements—delivery within 48 hours of baking, temperature-controlled transport, and weekly or twice-weekly shipment schedules. The vendor also holds an active Indefinite Delivery Vehicle with the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 to supply fresh bread and cupcakes to the Philadelphia Veterans Affairs Medical Center.

Customer concentration is heavily weighted toward correctional institutions and VA facilities. The top five customers account for 78 percent of recent awards by count and 73 percent by combined potential value. The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 leads both metrics with 40 awards and $1.4 million combined potential value, anchored by two IDCs (VA24417D0050 with 20 task orders worth $272 thousand and VA24413D0213 with 10 task orders worth $196 thousand). The Department of Justice Bureau of Prisons facilities constitute the remainder: Federal Correctional Complex Allenwood (19 awards, $979 thousand), Federal Correctional Institution Schuylkill (25 awards, $623 thousand), Federal Correctional Institution Fort Dix (9 awards, $618 thousand), United States Penitentiary Lewisburg (28 awards, $545 thousand), and Federal Detention Center Philadelphia (18 awards, $489 thousand). This concentration reflects a narrow customer base—14 distinct agencies total—with the BOP system as the dominant segment by facility count.

Activity has remained stable across the past five years, ranging from 13 to 23 awards annually (2022–2025), with 2026 tracking at 16 awards year to date. The recompete cliff is minimal: only two awards (combined potential value $111 thousand) face completion within the next twenty-four months, signaling low near-term recompete pressure. Combined potential value across all 166 awards stands at $5.7 million with $4.5 million obligated (79% of ceiling). The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor with no identified subcontract footprint. Product scope is almost entirely commercial bakery items (115 awards under NAICS 311812) and miscellaneous prepared food (24 awards), with PSC 8920 (Bakery and Cereal Products) accounting for 132 of 166 awards—a tightly focused capability profile aligned to institutional food service procurement.
