Government contracts for food services & catering in Arizona

Food services & catering contracts in Arizona typically cover dining-facility (DFAC) operations on DoD bases, cafeteria service at federal courthouses, vending operations under the Randolph-Sheppard program, and event catering. Federal posts in this category fall under NAICS 722310 (Food Service Contractors), and the bulk of the work flows to DoD bases, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, and the VA. Many cafeteria slots flow through Randolph-Sheppard or AbilityOne; remaining work runs as small-business set-asides.

Arizona currently has 4 open food services & catering contracts in our database, with 4 added in the last 30 days. Volume in smaller markets is lumpy: a single base or facility can drive a quarter of annual postings. The most active buyers are DEPT OF THE ARMY (3 open posts) and City of Tucson (1), with the rest spread across other federal civilian agencies, DoD components, and state and local departments active in Arizona.

Beyond federal opportunities, much of the food services & catering work in Arizona is posted through ProcureAZ, with recurring buyers including the Arizona Department of Transportation, Arizona State University, and the Arizona Department of Administration. ProcureAZ requires a vendor profile with active commodity codes — without them, you won't see relevant postings. ContractRadar pulls federal postings from SAM.gov alongside state and local feeds so a food-services vendor doesn't have to monitor each portal manually.
