US Foods Holding Corp. Secures $198.26 Million Contract from Defense Logistics Agency

US Foods Holding Corp. (USFD) has officially received a $198.26 million contract from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), a key branch of the U.S. Department of Defense responsible for providing logistics support to military forces. The contract will enable USFD to deliver a broad range of food items to meet the nutritional and operational needs of U.S. military personnel across domestic and overseas installations. The award highlights USFD’s growing presence in government procurement, particularly within defense and federal supply networks. The DLA’s selection process emphasizes reliability, scalability, and compliance with strict quality and delivery standards, which USFD has demonstrated over multiple fiscal cycles. This latest contract extends the company’s existing relationship with the DLA and reinforces its position as a critical supplier in the federal food logistics ecosystem. The $198.26 million value represents a significant portion of USFD’s recent government-backed revenue stream. While exact delivery timelines and product specifications were not disclosed publicly, the contract is expected to be executed over a multi-year period, with milestone-based deliveries to support military readiness. The award also signals continued investment in the company’s supply chain infrastructure and distribution capabilities. Market participants are noting the potential impact on USFD’s financial outlook, particularly on its backlog and recurring revenue visibility. Analysts suggest the contract could contribute meaningfully to the company’s full-year earnings, especially given its stable, long-term nature and alignment with federal spending priorities. The DLA contract also enhances USFD’s credibility as a provider of mission-critical supplies under stringent operational conditions.
