UNSPSC 12352211: Fats or lipids

UNSPSC 12352211 Fats or lipids is a Commodity code that captures oils, shortening, butter, margarine, and other fat-based cooking and food-service ingredients procured by school districts and other institutional food-service operations. The code appears in school nutrition solicitations where fats and lipids are bundled within broader grocery or prepared-food line items rather than purchased as standalone commodity categories. State and local buyers under this code include school districts operating child nutrition programs at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. The scope of work reflects institutional food procurement tied to meal service rather than retail or consumer-packaged-goods resale.

Rockwood R-VI School District in St. Louis County, Missouri posted a Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items solicitation (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, ITB, due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items across multiple food categories, including fats and lipids among condiments, prepared entrees, and other components. The district serves approximately 6,900 lunch and 900 breakfast participants daily and specified firm pricing for the entire contract period beginning July 1, 2026. Electronic submission via the NUTRIKIDS system was required, with awards anticipated by June 4, 2026. No other state-local opportunities under this Commodity code appear in the recent opportunities block, limiting visibility into geographic spread or repeat issuing bodies at this code level.
