Food Service Contractors federal obligations in FY2024
$6,179,591,181.30 is the USAspending.gov FY2024 obligation total for Food Service Contractors (NAICS 722310). About ninety percent of this food-service-contractor extract sits on FY2024. Dining contractors are not janitorial (561720) and not a meal-count log. That pair is Food Service Contractors (NAICS 722310) and federal fiscal year 2024 — not every federal dollar in FY2024, not Food Service Contractors's $6,878,063,988.33 extract-wide book, and not cash already paid. The cell is 89.8% of this industry's published obligation total. 3,116 is the industry-extract award-record count, not a FY2024-only instrument tally. USAspending.gov is the source. Correlation is not causation.

Reading NAICS 722310 inside FY2024
NAICS 722310 and fiscal year 2024 meet here. $6,179,591,181.30 is the USAspending.gov obligation sum on the yearlyTrend row that carries both tags. It is not Food Service Contractors's nationwide all-year total of $6,878,063,988.33, not every federal dollar coded to FY2024, and not an outlay register. The packet does not split dining sites or meal types, or contract from assistance. 3,116 is an industry-extract action count: modifications and repeat awards add rows across years. Unique recipients are unpublished. This cell is not a dining-facility census, a meal-count log, or a named-vendor roster.
Open /industries/722310/ (NAICS 722310) for the industry table without this FY2024 filter, /fiscal-years/2024/ (FY2024 federal spending) for the year table without this NAICS filter, /industries/ (All industries) for every industry, and /ties/ (All spending ties) for the rest of the join list. Quote those hubs as parents, not as addends to $6,179,591,181.30. Do not invent mess-hall names or a per-meal price. Recipients remain unpublished.
This page reports food service contractors activity USAspending tagged to FY2024. The headline $6,179,591,181.30 sits beside an industry-wide obligation total of $6,878,063,988.33; the 89.8% share is arithmetic on those two packet facts, not a ranking of fiscal years as winners or losers. Obligations are not outlays. A high year share is not a ranking of fiscal years as better-fed. It is an obligation share.
Industry 722310 without inventing a product pie
USAspending labels NAICS 722310 as Food Service Contractors. That code produced $6,179,591,181.30 when crossed with fiscal year 2024. The industry-wide 722310 hub does not require a FY2024 filter. The year hub does not require Food Service Contractors. Only this tie applies both filters. The packet does not split dining sites or meal types, or contract from assistance. FY2024 is the yearlyTrend stamp. Other years for 722310 stay off this page.
Why this page will not divide $6,179,591,181.30 by 3,116
3,116 is the Food Service Contractors award-record count published with the industry extract, not a count of FY2024 instruments. Dividing $6,179,591,181.30 by 3,116 would mix a one-year dollar total with a multi-year row count, so this page does not publish that ratio as a typical invoice. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications and multi-year vehicles can add lines without adding vendors. Three thousand one hundred sixteen industry-extract awards belong to 722310 across years, not to FY2024 as a dining-facility census. Later USAspending ingests can still restate FY2024 obligations without changing the join keys.
A moderate parent file makes a program split tempting; the packet still does not supply one. A thin parent file makes a named-facility story tempting; the packet still does not name facilities or contractors. 89.8% of $6,878,063,988.33 is the year share on this packet, not a performance score.
What the dollar figure is allowed to mean
USAspending.gov records an obligation when the federal government commits funds on an award. $6,179,591,181.30 is that kind of sum for Food Service Contractors in FY2024. Later deobligations, recoveries, or payment schedules can change what leaves the Treasury without this join rewriting itself into a cash register. Assistance and contract awards can share the same NAICS rollup; this packet does not split them. Net obligations can include downward adjustments. This page reports $6,179,591,181.30 as given.
Treat 3,116 as award records on the industry extract, not unique vendors and not a FY2024 headcount. Do not per-capita or per-recipient the dollar total; those denominators are unpublished. FEC contribution tables do not fund these awards. A high year share is not a ranking of fiscal years as better-fed. It is an obligation share.
Parents of this tie: industry, year, index
Cite USAspending.gov: Food Service Contractors (NAICS 722310) obligated $6,179,591,181.30 in FY2024. Name Food Service Contractors and FY2024 together. Keep the obligation word. If /industries/722310/ or /fiscal-years/2024/ has refreshed, prefer the live hub over this snapshot for current rows. The pair is not a dining-facility census, a meal-count log, or a named-vendor roster. 89.8% of $6,878,063,988.33 is the industry share on this packet, not a budget score. /industries/ lists other industries; /ties/ indexes other pairs.
Keep Food Service Contractors, FY2024, $6,179,591,181.30, and the 3,116-record industry extract together without mixing clocks. Do not add those parents to this cell. Sharing a year with Food Service Contractors does not mean campaign donations funded these awards, and it does not convert obligations into outlays. This page reports one USAspending yearlyTrend join. Do not invent mess-hall names or a per-meal price. Recipients remain unpublished.
Reading a moderate Food Service Contractors parent beside FY2024
Three thousand one hundred sixteen industry-extract awards belong to 722310 across years, not to FY2024 as a dining-facility census. Do not invent mess-hall names or a per-meal price. Recipients remain unpublished. A reader who quotes 3,116 as unique companies in FY2024 has left the packet. A reader who treats 89.8% as a hardship or success ranking has added a score the table does not carry. Prefer /industries/722310/ and /fiscal-years/2024/ if the live tables moved. A high year share is not a ranking of fiscal years as better-fed. It is an obligation share.
This snapshot holds $6,179,591,181.30 on the yearlyTrend row and 3,116 on the industry extract. /ties/ is the index, not an addend. Obligations are not outlays. Correlation is not causation. A reader who only quotes $6,179,591,181.30 without FY2024 and NAICS 722310 has dropped a join side.
Questions
- How much Food Service Contractors spending is obligated in FY2024?
- USAspending.gov lists $6,179,591,181.30 in Food Service Contractors (NAICS 722310) obligations for FY2024. That yearlyTrend amount is 89.8% of the industry's $6,878,063,988.33 extract-wide total. It is an obligation join, not an outlay and not every federal dollar in FY2024. Unique recipients are unpublished.
- Is $6,179,591,181.30 the entire Food Service Contractors USAspending total?
- No. NAICS 722310's extract-wide total is $6,878,063,988.33. FY2024 is 89.8% of that book. Other fiscal-year rows for the same industry are separate cells. Do not add /industries/722310/ into this join. 3,116 award records stay on the industry extract, not on this yearlyTrend row.
- Is $6,179,591,181.30 cash already paid in FY2024?
- No. Obligations are commitments recorded on USAspending.gov awards. Outlays — money that actually left the Treasury — are a different concept and are not this packet's headline. Treating $6,179,591,181.30 as checks already cleared in FY2024 confuses those terms. Prefer the live industry and year hubs if the tables moved.
- Do FEC donations fund these Food Service Contractors awards in FY2024?
- No. FEC receipts and USAspending obligations are different datasets. Sharing a calendar year does not mean donations funded $6,179,591,181.30 in FY2024. This page reports USAspending.gov NAICS 722310 crossed with fiscal year 2024. It does not report campaign finance. USAspending.gov remains the source for NAICS 722310 in FY2024.
