Fresh Fluid Milk Delivery Services

Granville County Board of Education is seeking a subcontractor to provide regular deliveries of fresh fluid milk in school-sized packaging to its public schools, ensuring the cold chain remains intact from supplier to school to maintain product safety and quality. The contract requires strict adherence to USDA Buy American provisions, meaning the milk and packaging must be sourced and produced predominantly within the United States, and all logistics must comply with federal nutritional and procurement guidelines for school meal programs. Deliveries must be scheduled reliably to meet the academic calendar and operational needs of the school system, with an emphasis on consistent supply, proper temperature control during transit, and documentation to verify compliance. The solicitation was posted on May 21, 2026, with responses due by June 5, 2026, and is classified under NAICS code 424420 for milk and dairy product merchant wholesalers. While no specific set-aside status is indicated, the contract is open to qualified subcontractors capable of meeting the technical, logistical, and regulatory demands of delivering perishable dairy goods at scale to a public education system. The performance location is within Granville County, North Carolina, and bidders must demonstrate proven experience in handling perishable food service distribution, particularly within institutional settings, with an ability to scale delivery volume according to seasonal and enrollment fluctuations.
