All food delivered by SPV to Navy and Marine Corps must originate from facilities listed in which publication?

• A. Directory of Sanitarily Approved Food Establishments
• B. Directory of Approved Food Establishments for DoD
• C. FDA Directory of Food Establishments
• D. Directory of Sanitarily Approved Fish Establishments

Answer: (A)

Food supplied to Navy and Marine Corps must come from facilities that have been vetted for sanitary compliance. The Directory of Sanitarily Approved Food Establishments is the official DoD list that identifies establishments approved to supply DoD and Navy food operations, ensuring they meet required sanitation standards and can provide traceable, safe products. Other directories either cover only specific types of food (like fish), or are not the DoD-sanctioned list for all food suppliers, so they don’t guarantee the same level of safety and accountability.
