Budget estimate

$3,000,000 – $4,500,000

No fixed contract value is disclosed, but historical sales for the three bookstores total roughly $3.8 million in FY 2025‑26. Assuming the vendor retains a portion of gross sales after covering all operating costs and proposes a commission payment to the District, total contract revenue (and thus potential earnings for the vendor) could range from about $1 million to $1.5 million per year, yielding a three‑year budget estimate of $3 million to $4.5 million. The range accounts for variations in inventory costs, staffing levels, and the vendor’s proposed commission structure.
