National Textile & Apparel Inc.

National Textile & Apparel Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Hazlehurst, Mississippi, manufactures specialized protective apparel — radiological protective coveralls, disposable coveralls, Foreign Material Exclusion (FME) coveralls, and anti-contamination garments — for the Department of Defense as a prime contractor across 134 recent awards worth $3.7 million in combined potential value. The company competes predominantly under Total Small Business set-asides and no-set-aside full-and-open procurements, with no subcontract footprint; all awards are prime work.

National Textile & Apparel Inc. is a for-profit Subchapter S Corporation registered in SAM.gov since 2001. The vendor holds no federal contract vehicles; instead, it places work against government-issued IDIQs and federal supply schedules. The company's manufacturing footprint is concentrated in a single facility at its Hazlehurst headquarters, where it produces all contractual deliverables meeting military technical specifications for protective textiles.

Customer concentration is sharp and defense-centric. The top five agencies account for 77% of recent awards by count and 93% of combined potential value. Naval Sea Systems Command dominates by volume (64 awards, $747 thousand combined potential value) but anchors fewer dollars than the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Clothing and Textiles division (15 awards, $2.1 million combined potential value). The tension between the two rankings reflects NAVSEA's purchase-order pattern — frequent, smaller orders for tactical coverall supply — against DLA's larger delivery-order model for radiological protective and specialty coveralls. Additional customers include the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center (9 awards, $220 thousand), the Department of the Army (8 awards, $2 thousand), and Naval Supply Systems Command (7 awards, $306 thousand).

National Textile & Apparel Inc. places task orders against three named parent vehicles: the Federal Supply Schedule GS07F0061U (12 task orders, $127 thousand combined potential value), an Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE1C125D0058 (5 task orders, $719 thousand), and an Indefinite Delivery Contract DAAC0198D0006 (3 task orders). The most recent award — a $222,198 delivery order from DLA for radiological protective coveralls issued April 2, 2026, with completion June 23, 2027 — calls against a DLA Troop Support IDIQ. A May 27, 2025 single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract (ceiling $176,859.30, through May 26, 2026) with DLA Troop Support Clothing and Textiles procures radiological protective coveralls (National Stock Numbers 8415-01-590-0608 and 8415-01-590-0609) using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable evaluation with source-selection requirements for product demonstration models.

Recent award trajectory shows modest variation: eight awards in 2022, five in 2023, eleven in 2024, eight in 2025, and four year-to-date in 2026. Only two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing $406 thousand in combined potential value and minimal recompete cliff exposure. National Textile & Apparel Inc.'s capability portfolio spans NAICS classifications Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing (46 awards), Men's and Boys' Cut and Sew Apparel Contractors (22 awards), and Other Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing (18 awards), with 99 awards classified under PSC Clothing, Special Purpose — the core federal signal for military-specification protective textiles.
