Description

This award notice announces the selection of multiple vendors to supply a comprehensive catalog of staple food items for the Chesapeake Public Schools nutrition program. The procurement is organized by individual SKUs, each awarded on a unit‑price basis to the vendor that submitted the lowest compliant bid. The contract is a fixed‑price, item‑by‑item arrangement with “Net” payment terms, covering a wide range of packaged foods such as cereals, snack bars, crackers, dairy, beverages, condiments, and other school‑meal essentials. No aggregate contract value or delivery schedule is disclosed in the award notice, but the breadth of 150 line items indicates a substantial, ongoing supply relationship. • Primary vendors: Holt Paper & Chemical Co., Inc. and Gold Star Foods (each receiving the majority of awards). • Additional vendors (Peterson Farms Fresh, ES Foods, Bernard Food Industries, Dick and Jane Baking) win single or few items, showing a competitive, multi‑award environment. • Scope: supply of pre‑packaged, shelf‑stable food products for K‑12 school meals, priced per case/unit, with standard net payment terms.

Contract value

$750,000

The award lists 150 individual line‑items with unit costs ranging from roughly $4.50 to $73 per case. Assuming a modest average order quantity of 100 cases per SKU (a typical school‑district volume for staple items) yields an estimated spend of: Average unit cost ≈ $40 100 cases × 150 items × $40 ≈ $600,000 Considering that some high‑cost items (e.g., specialty snacks) may be ordered in lower volumes and lower‑cost items in higher volumes, a reasonable ballpark range is $500,000 – $800,000. Selecting a midpoint gives an estimated contract value of about $750,000.
