Rhode Island College is seeking a qualified vendor to provide a comprehensive assortment of fresh, never‑frozen bakery products—including a wide variety of breads, rolls, bagels, tortillas, and related items—for its Donovan Dining Center.

• Deliver directly to the dining center inside the building during Monday‑Friday 7‑11 AM and Saturday‑Sunday 10‑12 PM windows; perishable deliveries may be needed up to seven days a week.
• Provide monthly reports documenting the percentage of locally or regionally sourced ingredients, complying with Rhode Island food‑sourcing law.
• Complete a three‑page vendor certification (including de‑barment, licensing, insurance, and Iran‑investment disclosures) and submit pricing on a unit‑price sheet.
