I remember being very young when I first read about sutlers selling spoiled meat to Union troops during the Civil War. I thought then that it was just wrong.....now it’s wrong, but on a grander scale.....
First company is headquartered in Dubai and the prior company was headquartered in Switzerland. The Swiss company was fined $ 288+ Billion. No US companies have the capacity to fill this contract?
From the link:
“Before Anham took over that work, a privately held Swiss company called Supreme Foodservice Gmbh, pleaded guilty to similar charges in 2014 and paid $288.36 million in criminal fines following a congressional inquiry. Scott Amey, general counsel with the nonprofit Project on Government Oversight, described the Pentagon’s oversight of the food and water supply contract as a game of “catch me if you can,” in which the government is losing.”
