GULF PACIFIC RICE CO., LLC

Gulf Pacific Rice Co., LLC specializes in the milling and packaging of U.S. government-standard rice commodities for international food assistance programs. The company delivers precision-specified long-grain and medium-grain rice in multiple packaging formats—including 1-pound, 2-pound, and 25-pound bulk bags—aligned with USDA commodity donation requirements. Their technical expertise includes batch consistency, moisture control, contaminant screening, and compliant labeling for global humanitarian distribution, with demonstrated proficiency in handling both milled white rice and parboiled brown rice variants. A key differentiator is their ability to rapidly scale production of multi-variant rice shipments under strict quality assurance protocols, ensuring adherence to U.S. food safety and packaging standards for foreign aid delivery. The contractor maintains a consistent, long-term relationship with the U.S. Department of Agriculture, exclusively fulfilling contracts under the Food for Peace program. Their work supports global food security initiatives by supplying staple rice commodities to international partners, requiring rigorous traceability, shelf-life validation, and packaging integrity. All engagements involve direct compliance with USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service specifications for commodity donations. Operating under NAICS 311212 (Rice Milling), the company is narrowly focused on the processing and packaging of rice for federal humanitarian programs, positioning itself as a specialized supplier within the U.S. food aid supply chain. While one contract falls under miscellaneous food manufacturing, the overwhelming emphasis is on rice-specific milling operations, including sorting, polishing, and bulk packaging of U.S. #2 grade rice. Gulf Pacific Rice Co., LLC is a small business entity based in Houston, Texas, with no federal certifications on record. Its geographic footprint is centered on domestic processing and logistics coordination to support federal distribution networks, serving as a reliable, niche provider in the government’s global food assistance ecosystem.
