Gossner Foods, Inc. specializes in the manufacturing of shelf-stable, low-fat and 1% milk products using ultra-high temperature (UHT) pasteurization and aseptic packaging technologies, serving critical government nutrition and rationing programs. Their core capabilities center on the production of dry, condensed, and evaporated dairy products that meet stringent federal food safety and shelf-life requirements, with a demonstrated focus on consistent quality control, cold chain integrity, and compliance with USDA and DoD nutritional standards. The company’s technical expertise includes large-scale dairy processing, UHT milk formulation, and box-packing systems optimized for long-duration storage and field distribution, making them a trusted supplier for military rations and domestic food assistance initiatives. Gossner Foods maintains a strong, recurring relationship with the Department of Defense, consistently delivering UHT milk products for troop feeding and deployed operations, while also supporting the Department of Agriculture’s food donation programs through direct commodity supply for nutrition assistance. Their work with these agencies reflects a pattern of reliable, repeat procurement tied to standardized nutritional specifications and logistical readiness. The contractor’s primary industry focus is in NAICS 311514—dry, condensed, and evaporated dairy product manufacturing—where they specialize in producing fluid milk products with extended shelf life, tailored for institutional and emergency use. Their vertical specialization lies in non-refrigerated dairy solutions, positioning them uniquely within the federal food supply chain for scenarios requiring durability and minimal infrastructure. As a woman-owned business operating from Logan, Utah, Gossner Foods leverages its small-to-medium enterprise structure to deliver agile, high-volume production with strict adherence to federal food safety protocols. The company’s certifications enhance its credibility in government procurement, particularly in programs prioritizing small and disadvantaged business participation. Their geographic footprint supports national distribution networks, reinforcing their role as a resilient, mission-aligned supplier to federal nutrition programs.
