NAICS 455219 – All Other General Merchandise Retailers encompasses retail establishments that offer a diverse array of general merchandise not covered by more specific retail categories, such as convenience stores, dollar stores, discount department stores, and specialty multi-category retailers. These businesses typically sell a broad mix of consumer goods including household items, personal care products, seasonal goods, snacks, and low-cost electronics. While primarily a commercial retail classification, this NAICS code may appear in government contracting when agencies procure non-specialized supplies through retail-style channels—such as emergency response kits, facility maintenance consumables, or morale, welfare, and recreation (MWR) items distributed to military installations or federal employee centers. This sector plays a niche but operational role in federal supply chains where rapid, small-batch procurement of everyday items is required outside traditional GSA schedules. No contractor data is available for this NAICS code, indicating limited or fragmented federal award activity. Contractors operating in this space, if any, are likely small businesses or regional retailers with GSA schedules or blanket purchase agreements, rather than large prime contractors focused on high-value systems integration. No agency data is available, suggesting procurement under this code is either highly decentralized, sporadic, or routed through broader supply categories like GSA Schedule 75 or Federal Strategic Sourcing Initiatives. Demand may stem from installations managing on-base retail operations, federal employee assistance programs, or emergency logistics units requiring immediate access to general goods. The competitive landscape is sparse in federal contracting, with low opportunity density and minimal visibility in public award databases. Contractors seeking entry should consider aligning with GSA’s broader retail or consumables schedules and target agencies with on-site retail or MWR functions, such as the Department of Defense Morale, Welfare, and Recreation programs or the Department of the Interior’s visitor services.

Small Business Size Standard

The SBA threshold that decides who can bid NAICS 455219 work as a small business.

$40.0M
Applies to the whole industry code

The SBA cap for this NAICS (13 CFR 121.201). A business at or under it can self-certify as small for work in this code, which is what makes it eligible for a small-business set-aside. The cap is set per NAICS, so the same company can be small in one code and not in another.

13 CFR 121.201, effective January 1, 2026. The SBA revises the table roughly once a year.

Bidder counts reported on past federal awards in this NAICS (USAspending). An open opportunity has no bidders yet, so this is the historical norm for similar work, not a fact about this solicitation. Not all awards report bidder counts, and fewer bidders often means incumbent-held work rather than an easier win. Federal reporting of bidder counts fell from ~96% of awards (FY2016) to ~30% (FY2018 onward); the chart shows shares of reported awards, and washed-out stretches mark years with fewer than 30 of them.

Inmate Purchasing Plan
Solicitation # 21120-22-3929935
The Correctional Service of Canada is seeking to establish a business account agreement with an e-commerce provider to supply approved personal property to inmates across its national institutions. The primary objective is to standardize the purchasing process, ensure uniform pricing, and increase institutional safety and efficiency. This initiative is funded entirely by inmates, resulting in a zero-dollar cost to the Canadian government. The agreement will be effective for one year, with annual reviews for renewal or amendment. The selected supplier must provide a centralized, 24/7 online business account restricted to pre-approved items, featuring unique user credentials and administrative access for the government to monitor orders. Key requirements include the ability to deliver goods to all designated institutions within fourteen calendar days, the provision of a designated account manager, and the delivery of bilingual training materials. Additionally, the supplier must offer bilingual customer service in English and French via email and a toll-free telephone number. To be considered, suppliers must demonstrate at least five years of e-commerce experience and possess a platform capable of credit card payments and detailed order tracking. They must also maintain a secure reporting system for sales transactions and volume. While no security clearances are required, the supplier must adhere to strict security protocols regarding approved goods and follow institutional workaround plans during lockdowns or emergencies. Interested parties may submit a statement of capabilities to be included on a list of potential suppliers.
