USDA program for minorities.

USDA participates in the 8(a) Business Development Program for minority companies. It is administered by the Small Business Administration.

• A certain number of "lines" for selected bids are set aside for the program. 
• These companies bid in their names and your payments come from them.

Liberty Food Marketers Co. is NOT a part of this program.

• We bid in your name and you receive payment direct from USDA.
  
• If you are currently bidding with an 8 (a) company, you may continue to do so.
