Following initial rejection of a tender process by the National Institute of Food, President Orsi has approved a $24 million contract for food provision to shelters and soup kitchens. The decision comes after dismissing a claim filed by a supplying company regarding the original tender results. Details of the initial dispute remain unclear, but the finalization of this contract ensures food supplies for vulnerable populations. The contract covers provisions for refugios and comedores, indicating a focus on supporting existing social programs. This decision follows a period of uncertainty surrounding the food procurement process. The $24 million allocation underscores the importance placed on addressing food security needs. The outcome resolves the contention between the Institute and the protesting provider.
