Redirecting Surplus Food Service

The City of Trenton, New Jersey, is seeking a qualified organization to establish and operate a food recovery information, engagement, and capacity building program. The agency is attempting to reduce food insecurity among low- and moderate-income households as well as disproportionately impacted communities within its jurisdiction. To solve this problem, the selected vendor must deploy a multi-channel outreach strategy to increase participation in food recovery initiatives and expand public awareness of local food recovery resources. The scope of work covers a variety of communication and engagement methods, which may include social media, print materials, radio, outdoor advertising, in-person engagements, presentations, and webinars. The agency requires that the work be performed either onsite in Trenton or offsite, depending on the specific project needs. Only organizations based onshore within the United States are eligible to submit proposals for this opportunity. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget and has not disclosed a specific funding limit in the preliminary announcement. Because the main request for proposals document is not publicly available on the primary website, bidders must request the full solicitation to review the complete evaluation criteria and key dates. The agency will evaluate submissions based on the details outlined in that main document once it is obtained by interested parties.
