Description

The City of Waterbury is seeking sealed bids from qualified vendors to supply fresh produce for municipal use. Bids must be submitted in sealed envelopes by the stated deadline, after which they will be publicly opened and read aloud. This procurement is a straightforward purchase of perishable goods, requiring vendors to meet quality, safety, and delivery specifications set by the city. • Supply a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables as defined in the bid documents. • Deliver produce to the City Hall’s Purchasing office or designated city facilities on a schedule agreed upon with the city. • Provide certifications that all items meet state and federal food safety standards (e.g., USDA, FDA). • Offer competitive pricing and be able to fulfill the city’s volume requirements on an ongoing basis.

Budget estimate

$75,000 – $150,000

While the solicitation does not disclose a contract value, municipal fresh‑produce contracts typically range from $50,000 to $200,000 annually, depending on volume, seasonal pricing, and the number of delivery sites. A mid‑size city like Waterbury is likely to budget in the lower‑to‑mid portion of that range, especially for a single‑year procurement. Therefore, an estimated award value would be roughly $75,000–$150,000.
