UNSPSC 10122100: Miscellaneous animal food

UNSPSC 10122100 Miscellaneous animal food is a Class code describing animal feed, hay, shavings, and related supplies that state and local governments procure to support shelter operations, county animal care facilities, and publicly operated equestrian venues. Recent opportunities show counties, cities, and animal care authorities buying commercially packaged feed products, hay, wood shavings (in various grades), and ancillary supplies to sustain animals in public custody—ranging from shelter dogs and cats to horses at municipal parks. Issuing bodies include county animal services divisions, municipal animal care agencies, and city parks departments operating public facilities. Solano County, DeKalb County, and Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control appear as active buyers in the recent record, each operating multiple facilities and procuring feed on recurring cycles.

Recent opportunities span California and Georgia. Solano County issued IFB 325-0910-25 for animal feed products supporting its Animal Care Services Division (due September 26, 2024), delivered via electronic bid through the OpenGov platform. DeKalb County solicited feed, hay, and shavings for Little Creek Horse Farm under ITB 2026-085-ITB, a three-year contract with two one-year options (bids due July 23, 2026), with one-calendar-day delivery required. The City of Conyers released an RFP for equine waste removal, shavings, hay, and feed sales at the Georgia International Horse Park (proposals due August 27, 2026 with a mandatory pre-proposal meeting August 3, 2026 and a ten-year initial contract term). Charlotte-Mecklenburg Animal Care & Control solicited a Shelter Food Supply Program contract to feed approximately 12,000 animals annually across two Charlotte facilities (proposals due June 24, 2026). Contracts typically require F.O.B. destination delivery, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, and compliance with hazardous-materials regulations where applicable.
