The Department of Defense's NAICS 315990 (Apparel Accessories and Other Apparel Manufacturing) market: incumbents, spending trend, set-asides and open solicitations — from FY2026 USAspending awards and live SAM.gov notices.
Contract data as of Oct 18, 2026 (USAspending) · recent coverage verified weekly
| Quarter | Awards | Obligated | Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 FY2026 | 455 | $63.9M | — |
| Q2 FY2026 | 437 | $64.5M | +1% |
| Q3 FY2026 | 230 | $25.9M | -60% |
| Q4 FY2026 · partial | 39 | $21.9M | -16% |
Federal fiscal quarters (Q1 = Oct–Dec). Awards are counted in the quarter they start; obligations are the award's obligated amount. The Department of Defense publishes contract awards to USAspending with a 90-day delay, so Q4 FY2026 is still missing most DoD awards — treat that quarter as incomplete, not as a spending decline.
| # | Contractor | Obligated | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CAM LOCK LIMITED | $20.6M | 11.7% |
| 2 | AMETRINE | $19.1M | 10.9% |
| 3 | BETHEL INDUSTRIES INC | $18.5M | 10.5% |
| 4 | POINT BLANK PROTECTIVE APPAREL & UNIFORMS, LLC | $12.8M | 7.3% |
| 5 | GENTEX CORPORATION | $8.5M | 4.8% |
Registrations are rolled up to their corporate parent (USAspending parent UEI), so a company with several SAM registrations ranks once.
