The idea of Jahnda was first envisioned by its founder in 2005 in a remote region of Afghanistan. Having been severely wounded during a previous combat tour to Iraq, his military service would be short-lived, and he began to wonder how he could continue serving his country as a civilian. With extensive experience in logistical operations in combat environments, he began to formulate a business strategy to address the challenges associated with one critical area of logistics – procurement.

As a wounded veteran, he quickly saw first-hand how difficult procurement was for agencies like the US Department of Veterans Affairs. So, he built a company that would continually seek to optimize procurement efforts for all government agencies. Today, Jahnda is a government supplier of 2 million products and services falling into three distinct categories – Industrial, Medical / Surgical (to include Laboratory and Clinical) and Office. By maintaining an ever-growing online product catalog, while similarly offering tangential services related to those products, Jahnda continues to execute upon and enhance its strategy in the ever-evolving landscape of government procurement.

We believe we are the ONLY Small Business in government procurement that has invested in the capability to directly manage an e-commerce platform that lists 2 million in-stock products – all available for instant purchase and immediate shipment.

On top of this, we’ve built a one-of-a-kind quoting tool that permits unlimited quote requests for any of our 2 million in-stock items, as well as items that are not listed in our e-commerce catalog. Just in case you need that 2,000,001 product.
