US Foods Inc.

US Foods Inc. US Foods - LOS Angeles Division, doing business as U.S. Foodservice, delivers frozen and fresh subsistence items—meats, poultry, seafood, produce, dairy, bakery products, and non-food supplies—to the Defense Logistics Agency Subsistence division as a prime contractor, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designations across a portfolio of single-award and multiple-award indefinite-delivery contracts.

The vendor is a for-profit corporate subsidiary of US Foods Inc., headquartered in Rosemont, Illinois, operating from its La Mirada, California facility. The Los Angeles Division competes exclusively in the commercial foodservice and subsistence distribution space, with recent work concentrated entirely under Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence vehicles. Performance locations span Los Angeles, San Diego, and Yuma, Arizona, supplying military dining facilities on a just-in-time basis.

Customer concentration is extreme and monolithic. Of 131,332 total prime awards in the source data, 129,789 (98%) fund Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence work valued at $4.53 billion in combined potential value; this single customer represents essentially 100% of the active Los Angeles Division footprint. Secondary agencies—Defense Logistics Agency (1,390 awards), Department of Agriculture Forest Service R5-Pacific Southwest Region (26 awards, $904 thousand), and Department of Agriculture Forest Service Job Corps (32 awards, $479 thousand)—are negligible by volume and dollars. The concentration reflects the nature of the business: subsistence distribution is fundamentally a high-volume, low-margin commodity play serving the single largest federal food-service buyer.

The vendor's vehicle position consists of five primary single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with DLA Troop Support Subsistence. Indefinite Delivery Contract SPE30020DA025 carries 32,468 task orders ($202.7 million combined potential value); SPE30020D3278 carries 9,746 task orders ($292.3 million); SPE30015D3127 carries 11,358 task orders ($57.7 million); SPE30020D3266 carries 13,660 task orders ($107.7 million); and SPE30021D3307 carries 9,386 task orders ($63.6 million). Most recent award data (July 2026) shows ongoing delivery orders against these vehicles for beef, chicken, seafood, frozen prepared items, produce, dairy, bakery goods, and consumables—individual orders typically $1 thousand to $300 thousand, completing within days to weeks.

Activity has declined in the period covered. From 2022 through 2025, the vendor received 16,011, 15,424, 14,747, and 14,271 awards respectively; 2026 (as of the reporting date) shows 7,323 awards—a steeper trajectory consistent with year-to-date partial data. Combined obligated dollars across all awards total $1.5 billion against a $4.61 billion potential-value ceiling. The source does not flag a specific recompete cliff, but the concentration of work under five IDV vehicles running through mid-2031 suggests potential contract expirations and recompete exposure as the initial vehicle terms reach maturity.

The vendor operates as a pure prime in the subsistence space with no subcontract footprint in the federal award data. Top NAICS categories reflect the commodity nature of the work: Commercial Bakeries (101,853 awards), All Other Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing (24,851 awards), and Other Grocery and Related Products Merchant Wholesalers (3,487 awards). Top PSC codes align with product delivery: Meat, Poultry, and Fish (62,210 awards), Dairy Foods and Eggs (22,428 awards), Fruits and Vegetables (13,573 awards), Special Dietary Foods (10,720 awards), and Bakery and Cereal Products (10,022 awards). The award distribution reflects DLA's operational model—thousands of small, high-frequency delivery orders to maintain inventory at dining facilities across the service region rather than large, monolithic contracts.
