The Arkansas Department of Corrections, in partnership with the Office of State Procurement, is soliciting bids for a contract to supply approximately 75,000 pounds of USDA Grade A fresh frozen turkeys for use in Thanksgiving and Christmas meals for the state's prison population. The contract emphasizes supporting local agriculture in accordance with Arkansas Act 617 of 2017. Deliveries are to be made to the DOC Central Warehouse in Pine Bluff, AR, between October 24 and October 31, 2025. The requirements specify tom turkeys weighing 20–25 pounds each, packaged two per case, and hen turkeys weighing 10–15 pounds each, packaged four per case. All turkeys must be well-shaped, meaty, and with even fat covering, and delivered using vehicles that maintain temperatures between 0° and 15° Fahrenheit. The initial contract term will begin in August 2025 and extend for one year, with the possibility of annual renewals for up to six additional years, not exceeding a total of seven years. Bidders are required to certify that they do not participate in boycotts against Israel or certain industries, do not employ illegal immigrants knowingly, and should indicate their compliance with purchasing from local farms as per state law.
