The contract size ranges from $50,000 to $200,000, and the project falls under the NAICS code 722310, which pertains to food services and drinking places. The City of San Leandro, part of the California state government, is managing this solicitation, inviting qualified businesses to submit proposals to operate the food service in a manner that aligns with the library’s busy and community-focused environment.
