Sasebo Senpaku Shokuryo Co., LTD.

Sasebo Senpaku Shokuryo Co., LTD., a Japan-based food supplier headquartered in Sasebo, Nagasaki, provides Japanese condiments and specialty food products to the U.S. Department of Defense as a prime contractor, competing full-and-open on DLA subsistence contracts without set-aside designations.

The vendor's federal footprint is highly concentrated in a single customer and narrow product category. Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Pacific accounts for 538 of 641 total awards (99% of awards by count), placing small-dollar BPA calls for sesame oil, sesame dressing, yakiniku sauce, yakisoba sauce, yakitori sauce, and golden curry sauce to provision U.S. military dining facilities in the Pacific region, principally at bases in Sasebo and surrounding areas of Japan. DLA Troop Support Subsistence contributes 99 awards worth $1.1 million in combined potential value. The vendor's capability portfolio aligns entirely with institutional food supply: recent representative awards include a $781 yakitori sauce BPA call in October 2024, a $683 sesame dressing BPA call in August 2023, a $1,463.70 yakiniku sauce call in August 2023, and numerous individual task orders ranging from $6 to $1,500, reflecting the modular, high-frequency procurement pattern of military foodservice operations. The vendor holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement (SPE30219A0008) established October 1, 2024, with a ceiling of $1,062.10 and performance period through September 30, 2029, which has generated 492 task orders worth $401 thousand in combined potential value. A second IDV, Indefinite Delivery Contract SPM30206AGC33, has placed 98 task orders valued at $1 million combined.

Activity declined sharply after 2023. The vendor received 101 awards in 2022, 94 in 2023, 34 in 2024, 31 in 2025, and only 6 through April 2026 — a contraction consistent with the transition from multiple legacy BPAs to the single-award vehicle awarded in October 2024. The source reports $2 million in combined potential value across all 641 awards, but obligated dollars total $4.7 million (240% of potential value), indicating substantial invoiced delivery against small ceiling values. The vendor operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards); no sub-award activity appears in the portfolio. Award categorization is dominated by PSC Condiments and Related Products (436 awards), followed by Fruits and Vegetables (103 awards) and Food, Oils and Fats (99 awards), reflecting tight alignment to a single DLA commodity class. The primary NAICS assignment is Commercial Bakeries (493 awards), a classification artifact that does not reflect the vendor's actual business — specialty condiments and oils for institutional feeding.
