About the company
Saputo Cheese USA Inc., a Wisconsin-headquartered for-profit manufacturer of dairy products, supplies frozen and shredded mozzarella cheese commodities to the U.S. Department of Agriculture as a prime contractor on full-and-open delivery orders supporting federal food donation and nutrition assistance programs. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards) with no subcontracting footprint and competes without set-aside designations across all active awards.
Saputo's customer concentration is extreme and near-total: the Department of Agriculture Food and Nutrition Service accounts for 549 awards and $936.9 million of the vendor's $989.5 million combined potential value (99% of awards and 95% of dollars). The Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office places a secondary tier of work—seven awards valued at $52.7 million—also for commodity cheese supply. All other customer agencies represent marginal exposure. The vendor holds multiple indefinite delivery contracts (IDCs) with FNS and the Agricultural Marketing Service, including a $120.8 million IDC (AGDPROC120001) running through December 31, 2023, a $39.4 million IDC running through December 31, 2024, a $15.4 million Agricultural Marketing Service IDC through June 30, 2024, and a $7.2 million IDC through December 31, 2026. Against these vehicles, Saputo places dozens of delivery orders annually for low-moisture part-skim mozzarella cheese in shredded frozen 30-pound boxes, frozen 8/6-pound loaves, and unfrozen processed bulk packaging, with individual delivery-order values ranging from approximately $57 thousand to $15.4 million and performance locations spanning California (Newman and Tulare), New Mexico (Las Cruces), Texas, and Illinois (Prairie View).
Award volume has declined over the past five years: 44 awards in 2022, 34 in 2023, 29 in 2024, 20 in 2025, and 10 year-to-date in 2026. This trajectory tracks the natural maturation of large IDC portfolios as the vendor consolidates ordering under fewer, larger delivery orders. The vendor faces minimal recompete risk in the next twenty-four months—only one award with a combined potential value of $488 thousand reaches ultimate completion by October 2026. Saputo executes all work as prime contractor directly from its own facilities without named subcontractors, maintaining end-to-end control over product quality and delivery to support SNAP and National School Lunch Program beneficiaries nationwide.
Saputo has also received federal grant funding as a sub-recipient under the Department of Agriculture Agricultural Marketing Service's Pandemic Market Volatility Assistance Program (CFDA 10.183): a $574,117 cooperative agreement awarded December 7, 2021, and a $177,192 cooperative agreement awarded April 19, 2023, through December 31, 2024. Under these agreements, Saputo distributed pandemic relief payments and dairy policy education to eligible dairy farmers affected by COVID-19 market disruptions, with operations centered in Illinois and nationwide.
