Retailer Selection Clause Samples
Retailer Selection. Prior to submitting an application under this RFA, applicants must establish partnerships with SNAP- authorized retailers located in the project site(s) that typically sell the qualifying foods directly to households. If the applicant wishes to partner with a firm(s) that is not currently authorized to accept SNAP benefits, the applicant should specifically identify such firms in the proposal, provide justification for the firms’ selection, and include statements in the firm’s letter of commitment that 1) the firm intends to meet the stocking or sales requirements for SNAP authorization, and 2) will submit an application for authorization within 30 days of award.

Technical assistance will be available from FNS as needed. See Appendix, page 44. Applicants must submit letters of commitment from each retailer banner or location that will participate in the project and at a minimum, include the following: • Retailers with IECR systems: Confirmation that the selected retailer(s) can program their systems to offer incentives or the intentions to upgrade their systems to offer incentives using the proposed project design. • Retailers with sid...
