NIGP 39385: Tea, Instant

NIGP 39385 Tea, Instant is an Item code representing individual packaged tea products that state and local governments procure for institutional food service, break rooms, and employee amenities. The State of Georgia posted a solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) on May 15, 2026, requesting bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response deadline. The solicitation encompasses instant tea alongside complementary food service items, though the full scope and specific instant tea quantities are contained in the attached procurement document.

Recent activity under this code reflects demand from state agency food service operations. Georgia's May 2026 solicitation represents the visible recent state-level opportunity; geographic spread and issuing-body patterns beyond this single solicitation cannot be characterized from the available source. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor state purchasing offices and institutional food service RFQs and ITBs, where instant tea typically appears as a line item within broader food and beverage bundles rather than as a standalone procurement.
