Yes, we know about the movie.
If you found us searching for the company from War Dogs – the 2016 film starring Jonah Hill and Miles Teller – you're in the right place. Sort of.
We share the name AEY Inc. with the company made famous by the film, which told the story of two young arms dealers who landed a $300 million Department of Defense contract to supply ammunition to the Afghan military. That company was based in Miami Beach, Florida, and was operated by Efraim Diveroli and David Packouz.
This is not that company.
This AEY Inc. is a veteran-owned construction materials supplier and procurement firm based in California. Founded by David Manning – a Marine Corps infantry veteran with two combat deployments to Afghanistan – our company helps general contractors source construction materials and meet their disabled veteran and small business participation goals on public works and government contracts.
We supply steel, rebar, electrical, plumbing, roofing, and every other material category that goes on a job site. We hold DVBE, SDVOSB, SBE, EBE, LBE, and a dozen other certifications across California state, City of Los Angeles, and federal levels. We are a legitimate, certified, veteran-owned business with active registrations on CaleProcure, SAM.gov, and SBA VetCert.
Different company. Different industry. Different state. Different mission.
Same energy. Better compliance record.
