UNSPSC 11141702: Tobacco waste or scrap

UNSPSC 11141702 Tobacco waste or scrap is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Salt Lake City's Request for Information SLCI27037, posted October 9, 2026 with a response deadline of October 16, 2026—addresses food waste recycling and food recovery services, which falls outside the tobacco waste scope the code name implies. Salt Lake City is gathering vendor information to support its zero-waste goal by 2040 and to expand food waste recycling options within city boundaries, but this activity does not represent procurement of tobacco waste or scrap products or services.

The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity and the actual work being solicited suggests that this code sees little relevant recent state and local activity. The RFI itself is an information-gathering exercise rather than a binding procurement, and no binding contract opportunities appear in the available record for tobacco waste or scrap under this code. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether their services or products align with actual municipal waste-management or tobacco-industry procurement rather than rely on the coding applied to recent postings.
