Canned Tomato Products and Sauces SupplyThe contract pertains to the supply of canned tomato paste, diced tomatoes, and tomato-based sauces in institutional-sized packaging for use in food preparation at correctional facilities, specifically serving the Department of Justice's facility in Guaynabo with a ZIP code of 00965. The procurement is structured as a subcontract under a Total Small Business Set-Aside designation, meaning only small businesses certified by the Small Business Administration are eligible to bid, promoting small business participation in federal contracting. The North American Industry Classification System code 311421 identifies the industry as other canned fruit and vegetable manufacturing, emphasizing the focus on processed tomato products suitable for large-scale institutional use. The contract was posted on July 27, 2026, and the place of performance is exclusively located in Guaynabo, requiring the supplier to ensure timely delivery and compliance with institutional packaging standards, though specific volume, frequency, or quality requirements are not detailed. The agency name listed is Mdc Guayanbo, indicating direct use by a correctional facility under the Department of Justice. There is no designated point of contact provided, and the solicitation number is not included, suggesting the procurement may be part of a broader framework agreement or may follow a streamlined process. The online reference link allows access to further details through the SAM.gov portal, but the core requirement centers on consistent, scalable, and compliant delivery of tomato-based food products to support institutional meal programs.
