Schenk Packing Co., Inc.

Schenk Packing Co., Inc., a for-profit meat manufacturer based in Stanwood, Washington, supplies frozen and fresh beef commodities to the federal government exclusively as a prime contractor under small business set-asides, with all work performed at its Stanwood facility and no subcontract footprint. The vendor operates under NAICS 311611 (Animal Slaughtering) and 311612 (Meat Processed from Carcasses), with all products subject to 100 percent domestic sourcing requirements.

Customer concentration is heavily tilted toward USDA commodity procurement. The Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service leads by significant margin with 23 awards valued at $77.7 million combined potential value, followed by the Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Marketing Service Washington Office with 2 awards valued at $10.2 million. The Defense Logistics Agency accounts for 30 awards but with dollar values not disclosed in the source ranking; together these three agencies represent 100 percent of Schenk's award portfolio. The divergence between award count (DLA leads at 30 awards) and potential value (USDA FNS leads at $77.7 million) signals that DLA orders are smaller-dollar commodity calls compared to USDA's larger-value definitive contracts.

Recent contract work includes a $6.9 million partial small business set-aside definitive contract from USDA FNS for frozen beef coarse ground commodities (60-pound cartons) awarded September 22, 2026; a $2.3 million contract for frozen fine ground beef (40-pound cartons and individual packages) awarded September 21, 2026; a $10.7 million contract for frozen coarse ground beef awarded August 20, 2025; and a $9.9 million contract for frozen fine ground beef in 40-pound cartons awarded December 11, 2025. All USDA contracts are firm fixed price with domestic sourcing compliance. Schenk Packing maintains seats on five Defense Logistics Agency indefinite delivery contracts (DLA13786CK181, DLA13786CK377, DLA13786CK482, DLA13786CL242, DLA13786CL280), each carrying one task order; the dollar values of these DLA vehicles are not specified in the source.

Activity accelerated from 2022–2023 (one award per year) to 2024–2026 (six, eight, and nine awards respectively), with combined potential value across all 66 awards standing at $87.9 million and combined obligated dollars at $78.2 million (89 percent of potential). Four awards with completion dates in the next twenty-four months carry combined potential value of $14.6 million, representing recompete opportunity. The vendor has maintained federal contracting status since December 1997 and competes exclusively under partial and total small business set-asides, with no recorded full-and-open competition or higher-tier SBA designations in the award portfolio.
