Food Service Contractors in Mississippi (NAICS 722310)

NAICS 722310 and Mississippi as a feeding join

This page intersects one six-digit industry and one state. $11,595,523.92 is the obligation sum where both filters are true. NAICS 722310 is food service contractors, not commercial bakeries and not roofing contractors. It is not a statewide spending total and not a national NAICS 722310 total. Those parent tables live on /states/ms/ and /industries/722310/.

237 awards against $11,595,523.92 is a mid-thick food-service cell, not a one-line mess-hall task order. 237 is an award-record count. Modifications can sit beside base awards. The packet does not say how many unique vendors produced the 237 lines. Reading 237 as factories, ships, or clinics in Mississippi would confuse actions with establishments.

Mississippi industries (/states/ms/industries/) lists other NAICS codes with MS place of performance. All spending ties (/ties/) indexes other state–industry pairs. Do not sum those indexes into $11,595,523.92. The headline remains $11,595,523.92 on 237 awards for this pair alone.

Food service contractors, not bakery plants

NAICS 722310 is a Census industry code assigned on the award. NAICS 722310 is food service contractors, not commercial bakeries and not roofing contractors. Bakery manufacturing and roofing-contractor codes are different industry pages even when they share a Mississippi tag. Those neighboring codes never enter $11,595,523.92 unless they also appear as 722310, which they do not. Keep the six-digit label when you cite the Mississippi cell.

Food service contractors cover institutional feeding, not grocery manufacturing. This extract does not name kitchens, menus, or primes. Dividing $11,595,523.92 by 237 produces about $48,926. That quotient is arithmetic, not a typical Mississippi contract. There is no median, no top-award table, and no fiscal-year breakout on this packet. Do not treat the mean as a posted unit price.

Mississippi geography on a 722310 cell

Mississippi place of performance can cover Jackson, Gulfport, Biloxi, or a reporting address. The packet has no metro split. Inside the MS tag, Jackson, Biloxi, or a named dining facility are not broken out. The packet has one state key. A named city can sit inside $11,595,523.92 only if its awards carry NAICS 722310 and MS — which this narrative cannot verify.

Place-of-performance geography is not the same as contractor headquarters. A firm based elsewhere can perform in Mississippi, and a Mississippi address can appear on work done out of state. This join reports the coded pair, not a logistics map. /states/ms/ remains the statewide parent.

Obligations versus outlays for Mississippi 722310

USAspending obligations are commitments, not checks that have cleared. $11,595,523.92 can include amounts that will be paid later, cancelled, or modified. The packet does not publish outlays. 237 is not a payment count. Quote NAICS 722310 in Mississippi as obligations and leave fiscal-year folklore off the citation — years are unpublished here.

What the food-service–Mississippi pair does not prove

The food service contractors–Mississippi pair does not prove that Mississippi specialized in this industry because of federal demand, or the reverse. Food service contractors cover institutional feeding, not grocery manufacturing. This extract does not name kitchens, menus, or primes. Campaign-finance tables are a different dataset; donations do not fund these awards. Keep both sides of the join in any headline: NAICS 722310 and Mississippi.

How to cite NAICS 722310 in Mississippi

Cite USAspending.gov, NAICS 722310 (Food Service Contractors), Mississippi (MS), $11,595,523.92, and 237 awards. Note that the figures are obligations. Point readers to /states/ms/, /industries/722310/, /states/ms/industries/, and /ties/ rather than collapsing those pages into this cell. Mean per award stays about $48,926 as a ratio only. Readers who reuse MS food service (722310): $11.6M should keep both sides of the join in the same sentence, cite USAspending.gov as the source, and treat award rows as records rather than unique vendors. The live hubs linked from this page can refresh the snapshot; this narrative does not invent a fiscal year, a recipient list, or an outlay total that the packet omitted. Place of performance remains a geography tag, not proof that work stayed inside the named state.
