Distinct winners
Retail trade contracting at the federal level operates differently than commercial retail. The 29 awards totaling $4.3 million reveal a market where "retail" means procurement of goods and services through established vendors rather than storefront operations. Two-thirds of all spending flows through Defense and Veterans Affairs, signaling that success here requires understanding government supply chains rather than consumer demand.
