VERTEX AMMUNITION AND SUPPLY, LLC

VERTEX AMMONITION AND SUPPLY, LLC specializes in the procurement and distribution of specialized ammunition and related defense-grade sporting goods to federal law enforcement and justice agencies. Their core capabilities center on secure, just-in-time logistics for mission-critical ammunition supplies, ensuring compliance with federal handling, storage, and transportation regulations for hazardous materials. The company demonstrates technical proficiency in supply chain orchestration for sensitive munitions, inventory management under strict regulatory frameworks, and timely delivery coordination for time-sensitive operational needs. Their differentiation lies in their focused execution within the niche segment of law enforcement ammunition logistics, where precision, accountability, and adherence to ATF and DOJ protocols are paramount. The contractor maintains a direct working relationship with the Department of Justice, delivering mission-critical ammunition resupply under quarterly contracting cycles. This pattern suggests a trusted, recurring vendor status within DOJ’s operational logistics ecosystem, likely supporting federal law enforcement components such as the U.S. Marshals Service or DEA. Their work is narrowly tailored to sustaining active-duty ammunition inventories, indicating deep familiarity with DOJ’s procurement rhythms and operational tempo requirements. Vertex Ammunition and Supply operates primarily under NAICS 423910, which classifies them as a merchant wholesaler of sporting and recreational goods — in practice, this translates to acting as an intermediary distributor of federally regulated ammunition products, not a manufacturer. Their market positioning is that of a specialized logistics provider serving government entities requiring compliant, auditable ammunition supply chains. The entity is structured as a small business (ZZ classification) with no federal certifications on record. Located in Elizabeth, Illinois, the company serves the federal market through a lean, focused operational footprint, emphasizing reliability and regulatory adherence over broad diversification. Their geographic presence supports regional distribution efficiency to federal facilities in the Midwest and beyond.
