How Do They Buy • Majority of catering food purchases for all branches of the service are done through a Prime Vendor – Installations have full access to the Prime Vendor inventories; purchases completed at the installation level

• Supplies/equipment purchased through the Air Force Nonappropriated Fund Purchasing Office (AFNAFPO) – Installations also purchase directly from vendors

• Since purchases are primarily at installation level, suppliers must accept credit cards (V, MC)

Prime Vendor • There has to be a need, meet nutritional requirements, meet fair and reasonable pricing, and enough demand from customers to meet minimum requirements for the Prime Vendor • All suppliers should first contact the Service HQ for APF and Installation activities for NAF to market their products • Be aware that having an approved product does not guarantee sales – Installation activities have choices (no sole source) • Overseas product will require a Manufacturer Purchasing Agreement (MPA) to be in place
