UNSPSC 23181524: Butter churn

A device used to turn cream or milk into butter

UNSPSC 23181524 Butter churn is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity posted under this code—City of Albany, Georgia Downtown Development Authority RFP #27-018 for lease operation or sale of a craft beverage production and event space—concerns commercial real estate and hospitality operations, not dairy or food-processing equipment. The solicitation invites proposals for operating a beverage production facility with taproom and event space under three flexible pathways (production and distribution, taproom and hospitality, or integrated full-facility management), evaluated on team qualifications, concept quality, operational planning, and financial offer. This scope bears no relationship to butter-churn equipment procurement.

State and local procurement activity under the butter churn code does not appear in current opportunity records. Jurisdictions purchasing dairy or food-processing equipment typically source such items through cooperative purchasing agreements, direct buys from equipment vendors, or RFQs posted under broader food-service or industrial-equipment codes rather than narrow commodity codes. The misclassification of the Albany DDA solicitation suggests the code receives minimal active use in state and local procurement systems, or opportunities tagged to it are administrative errors. Business development firms should monitor broader Family or Class codes covering food-processing equipment and supplies if targeting state and local food-service, institutional dining, or agricultural markets.
