This government award represents a delivery order contract for fresh chilled lettuce procurement, executed under a larger indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contract focused on providing produce for military and USDA school programs. The recipient, Cash-Wa Distributing Co. of Kearney, Inc., is a distributor specializing in supplying fresh produce, including military and institutional food service customers. The current contract entails the delivery of fresh chilled lettuce to a specified location in Kearney, Nebraska, within a single day, reflecting the contract's focus on timely and efficient distribution. This delivery order is a small but essential component of an ongoing multi-year supply agreement with the Department of Defense that ensures consistent quality produce for military feeding programs. The contract was awarded as part of a competitive process under the established IDV vehicle SPE30024DSB01, which covers produce supply to military and USDA schools, underscoring the strategic importance of fresh food provision in government nutrition programs. The original broader contract, awarded to the same distributor, facilitates multiple such orders over its duration. This award reinforces the government's commitment to sourcing fresh produce through reliable distributors, supporting nutrition and readiness of armed forces and school populations.
