About the company
Wilkes Communications, Inc., doing business as Riverstreet, operates exclusively as a subgrantee on federal broadband-infrastructure grants, with all three awards in its source footprint flowing through the North Carolina Governor's Office as prime grantee on Department of the Treasury Departmental Offices grants. The vendor is a for-profit subsidiary of Wilkes Telephone Membership Corporation, a tax-exempt nonprofit parent based in Wilkesboro, North Carolina.
Riverstreet's entire three-award portfolio (100% sub-grantee activity, $7 million combined obligation across 2025) focuses on broadband-infrastructure deployment in rural North Carolina. The three awards, dated April 13, May 4, and May 12, 2025, each task Riverstreet with building telecommunications infrastructure to serve currently unserved and underserved locations in Yadkin County and Wilkes County, North Carolina, under Treasury grant authority channeled through the state governor's office.
The vendor's federal footprint is nascent and narrow. All three awards are Treasury grants routed through state administrative pass-through (Governor's Office of North Carolina); there is no prime contracting activity, no GWAC or BPA positioning, and no multi-agency customer base. The parent nonprofit, Wilkes Telephone Membership Corporation, carries no federal prime awards and does not appear separately in the grant footprint. Riverstreet's federal role is tied exclusively to rural broadband deployment in its home region, with no visible expansion into other geographies, other federal customers, or other service lines at this time.
