C.J. FOODS, INC.

C.J. Foods, Inc. specializes in the manufacturing and delivery of mission-critical subsistence products for federal correctional facilities, with deep expertise in perishable prepared foods, meat processing, and kosher-compliant meal systems. The company produces a wide array of frozen and shelf-stable food items including beef steaks, pork products, tater tots, condiments, and ready-to-serve meals tailored to institutional dietary and religious requirements. Their technical capabilities span end-to-end food manufacturing under strict USDA and DOJ subsistence standards, with rigorous adherence to food safety protocols, cold chain logistics, and allergen control. A key differentiator is their consistent delivery of complex, multi-item national menus that integrate kosher, halal, and culturally specific dietary needs across high-volume, time-sensitive distribution windows. The contractor maintains an exclusive, long-standing relationship with the Department of Justice, supplying subsistence provisions to federal correctional institutions nationwide. Their work supports the Bureau of Prisons’ operational food service requirements, ensuring compliance with federal nutrition guidelines and institutional meal planning standards. All recent awards confirm a pattern of recurring, quarterly contract renewals focused on sustaining consistent, reliable food delivery to facilities such as FCI Bennettsville, FCI Fairton, and FCI Seagoville. C.J. Foods operates primarily within NAICS 311999 (All Other Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing) and 311991 (Perishable Prepared Food Manufacturing), positioning itself as a niche provider of institutional-grade, ready-to-serve meals. Their vertical specialization lies in integrating meat, frozen side dishes, and specialty sauces into cohesive menu systems that meet federal dietary mandates, distinguishing them from general food manufacturers. As a Women-Owned Small Business and Woman-Owned Business certified firm based in Waverly, Minnesota, C.J. Foods leverages its small business status to serve federal procurement priorities while maintaining agile, responsive production capabilities tailored to the unique demands of the federal corrections food supply chain.
