About Johnny Buscema Jr.
President and CEO Defense Contractor
Johnny Buscema Jr. is the President and CEO of S.A.F.E. Structure Designs, a Christian-based global leader in defense contracting known for its ergonomic safety-first support equipment for the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, U.S. Coast Guard, and Special Ops. He established S.A.F.E. Structure Designs LLC in 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada. He has since led the company to prominence as a top U.S. defense contractor, focusing on designing, engineering, and manufacturing customizable solutions to meet military demands.
S.A.F.E.'s extensive product line supports air, land, sea, and space initiatives. The company aids the Department of Defense globally with its American-made products, operating out of seven manufacturing facilities across the USA. Each facility boasts unique capabilities that enable limitless production potential. Johnny credits his success to his faith, often remarking, "Although we oftentimes don’t understand what Jesus is doing in our life, if we are obedient and faithful to the word of God, then when it’s revealed to us later, we will not be disappointed… And that is because Jesus never lets us down."
Before creating S.A.F.E. Structure Designs, he was the President, CEO, and majority partner at All Metal MS. Under his leadership, he utilized his innate business and financial management skills to rescue the company from the brink of bankruptcy, tripling its gross sales and manufacturing output. His prior experience in financial investing, which began at one of the largest U.S. financial services firms, John Hancock, in 2001, provided him with the skills to effectively manage finances, cut costs, negotiate with creditors, and restructure debts.
In 2005, leveraging his financial acumen and a robust family background in real estate construction, he founded Stylistic Designs Developers, a general contracting firm based in Clearwater, FL, specializing in residential, commercial, and medical facility construction, which continues to prosper today.
Early Life and Career
Johnny was born in Long Island, NY, and raised in Florida, where he completed his education at the University of Florida. A proud Gator Alumni and former collegiate athlete, he excelled in track and field, particularly in the 110M High Hurdles, even qualifying for the Olympic Trials. Unfortunately, an injury two weeks before the trials ended his Olympic dreams. He has since devoted time to coaching track and field at several middle and high schools across Florida, Nevada, and Illinois. In 2001, his career turned pivotal when he joined John Hancock Financial Services as a Financial and Investment Advisor. He quickly climbed the ranks to become one of the youngest financial executives to open a branch in New Port Richey, FL.
Innovative Industrial CEO
In 2010, after divesting his interests in his real estate venture to his father and a former teammate, he redirected his focus to All Metal MS, transforming it into a safety-focused industry leader. His achievements there inspired him to found S.A.F.E., which has grown under his leadership into a significant defense contractor providing tailored, mission-critical equipment designed for the U.S. Department of Defense.

Johnny's business ventures and philanthropic efforts are globally recognized and deeply rooted in his Christian faith. Alongside his wife, he has contributed to building Christian churches in underserved areas and supports numerous Christian ministries.
