Annie Marie Therése Lööf (Swedish: [ˈløːv]; born Johansson 16 July 1983, Maramö, Värnamo Municipality, Småland) is a Swedish politician of the Centre Party. She is the Leader of the Centre Party since 2011 and has been Member of the Riksdag, representing her home constituency Jönköping County, since 2006. She served as Minister for Enterprise from 2011 to 2014, in the later Reinfeldt Cabinet.

Annie Lööf was born and raised in Maramö outside Värnamo. . During her last year at Finnvedens Secondary School in Värnamo, where she studied social sciences, she developed an interest in politics, and at the end of 2001 she joined the Centre Party. During the 2002 election she was employed as an election-agent for the Centre Party Youth in Jönköping County and the same year was awarded a Dag Hammarskjöld Scholarship, which gave her a chance to immerse herself in international peace and environmental issues at the UN Headquarters in New York. After the election she enrolled to study law at Lund University and graduated in August 2011 with a law degree.

In the general election of 2006 she was elected to the Riksdag, being at that time the youngest member of the legislature.
