Coffee Equipment and Kitchen Appliance Supply

The contract pertains to the supply of Starbucks-approved coffee equipment and kitchen appliances, including espresso machines, brewers, refrigeration units, ovens, and point-of-sale systems, to support Starbucks operations across designated locations. All equipment must meet Starbucks-specific technical and operational standards to ensure consistency in product quality and customer experience. The contract is structured as a subcontract and falls under NAICS code 423830, indicating it relates to wholesale trade of miscellaneous durable goods, likely serving institutional or commercial clients. The solicitation was posted on July 2, 2026, with a response deadline of July 23, 2026, indicating a relatively short turnaround for proposal submissions. The procurement is managed by the University of North Carolina System Office Design/Construction, suggesting the equipment is intended for Starbucks locations embedded within or adjacent to UNC campus facilities. Performance is expected to occur across North Carolina, though no specific cities or zip codes are listed. There is no set-aside designation, meaning the opportunity is open to all eligible vendors regardless of business size or ownership status. The absence of a point of contact listed implies that all inquiries and submissions must be directed through the official online portal linked in the posting, which serves as the sole channel for communication and documentation during the procurement process.
