ARCHER FARMS INC

Archer Farms Inc. specializes in the procurement and supply of live livestock for critical government research and testing programs, with deep expertise in beef cattle and swine operations. The company provides high-integrity animal assets for vaccine potency testing and biomedical research, ensuring compliance with stringent biocontainment and animal welfare standards. Their technical capabilities include animal sourcing, health monitoring, quarantine protocols, and logistics coordination for live biological materials used in defense and agricultural R&D. A key differentiator is their ability to deliver genetically consistent, pathogen-free livestock—particularly Yorkshire swine and beef cattle—tailored to the precise physiological requirements of federal testing protocols, enabling reliable data collection for vaccine efficacy and immunological studies. The contractor maintains a strong working relationship with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Department of Defense, delivering livestock for mission-critical biomedical research. For USDA, they supply cattle for vaccine potency validation, supporting veterinary biologics development. For DoD, they provide swine for research applications, including infectious disease modeling and medical countermeasure evaluation, reflecting a trusted partnership in defense health preparedness. Archer Farms operates primarily under NAICS 112111 (Beef Cattle Ranching and Farming) and 112210 (Hog and Pig Farming), positioning itself as a niche supplier of specialized livestock for federal science and biosecurity programs. Their market focus is not on commercial agriculture but on supporting government research infrastructure with biologically validated animals, distinguishing them from general livestock producers. As a small, locally based entity in Darlington, Maryland, Archer Farms Inc. is structured as a 2L entity with no federal certifications. Their geographic proximity to federal research facilities enables rapid response and logistical agility, reinforcing their role as a reliable provider in the government’s biological research supply chain.
