Unifirst Corp

Unifirst Corp, a San Diego-based subsidiary of Unifirst Corporation, operates as a prime contractor providing uniform rental, laundry services, and personal protective equipment management to federal agencies on a full-and-open (non-set-aside) basis. The company competes exclusively in open competition and holds no SBA designations. Unifirst Corp is a for-profit manufacturer and service provider; its parent, Unifirst Corporation, is headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts and maintains the broader federal contracting footprint.

Unifirst Corp's concrete capability portfolio centers on uniform rental and laundering, shop towel servicing, lab coat rental with weekly replacement cycles, and facility-support laundry services. Representative prime work includes a $76.8 thousand firm fixed-price definitive contract with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (awarded February 2026) for uniform and laundry service at Wellton, Arizona through February 2029; a $14.9 thousand CBP purchase order (May 2025) for rental and servicing of shop towels at the San Diego Sector through April 2030; and a $12.5 thousand Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery purchase order (April 2025) for lab coat rental of 135 units per week for fifty-two weeks through April 2030.

Customer concentration is extreme and narrow. The United States Marine Corps dominates Unifirst Corp's portfolio with 151 of 184 awards and $2.3 million of the $2.8 million combined potential value (82% of total dollars). CBP places the second-largest customer role with eight awards and $367 thousand in potential value, followed by the Department of the Navy (fourteen awards, $126 thousand) and the Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (six awards, $40 thousand). This heavy Marine Corps weighting reflects Unifirst Corp's primary revenue stream through two indefinite delivery contracts — M0068108D0009 (eighty-one task orders, $890 thousand) and M0068108D0008 (eighty task orders, $186 thousand) — which are the parent vehicles driving the bulk of activity. The vendor's footprint is classified across primary NAICS 812311 (Industrial Launderers) and PSC Housekeeping—Laundry/Drycleaning, with 157 of 184 awards in that category. Recent activity is sparse — two awards in 2024, two in 2025, and one in early 2026 — reflecting a mature, low-velocity contract management posture focused on Marine Corps task-order delivery under two standing IDVs rather than new-customer acquisition.
