Anjeanette Johnson

Anjeanette Johnson serves as a key procurement professional within the Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) under the U.S. Department of Agriculture, supporting the agency’s mission to secure safe, shelf-stable, and nutritionally adequate food commodities for federal domestic assistance programs. She manages the acquisition of processed and preserved agricultural products, including canned, frozen, dried, and prepared foods, ensuring compliance with federal nutrition standards and supply chain resilience. Her work directly enables the distribution of essential food items to vulnerable populations through programs such as The Emergency Food Assistance Program (TEFAP) and the National School Lunch Program. Johnson handles full-cycle contracting activities, from market research and solicitation development to award and contract administration, with a focus on high-volume, mission-critical procurements. Her primary contractor relationship is with Navcor Logistics LLC, a trusted vendor with demonstrated capability in the processing and distribution of perishable and preserved food commodities. Johnson maintains a consistent, performance-driven partnership with this contractor, relying on their expertise in cold chain logistics, quality control, and large-scale commodity fulfillment. While Navcor Logistics is her most frequently engaged vendor, she evaluates and engages a broad base of qualified suppliers to ensure competitive, reliable sourcing aligned with USDA standards. Johnson’s procurement portfolio reflects a 100% preference for open, non-set-aside competitions, indicating a strategic emphasis on maximizing competition and operational efficiency over socioeconomic set-asides. While small business participation is not formally prioritized through designated programs such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB, her acquisitions remain accessible to all eligible vendors under full and open competition principles. Her technical expertise centers on NAICS 311615 (Poultry Processing) and 311999 (All Other Miscellaneous Food Manufacturing), reflecting a deep specialization in the procurement of value-added meat and prepared food products. She oversees acquisitions requiring strict adherence to USDA food safety protocols, shelf-life requirements, and packaging specifications, demonstrating advanced knowledge in food manufacturing standards and federal commodity procurement frameworks.
