UNSPSC 39112602: Candle holder

UNSPSC 39112602 Candle holder is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers decorative candle holders, yet the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for candles, candle holders, or related tableware items. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span food service procurement—school nutrition programs, disaster meal services, prisoner commissary supply, and kitchen equipment—none of which align with the code's intended scope. This mismatch suggests either a data quality issue in how opportunities are being classified or that the code is not actively used by state and local buyers for its stated purpose.

The fifteen most recent opportunities in the block focus entirely on food and food-service-adjacent categories: school districts across Georgia, Texas, and Michigan procuring groceries, meal kits, ice cream, fresh produce, and eggs under IFBs and RFPs; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission sourcing canteen candy and food for a state hospital; the State of Georgia and Invest Atlanta seeking food distributors and grocery market operators; and the Michigan Department of Corrections requesting prisoner commissary and care package fulfillment. Issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Tattnall, Hancock, Coffee, Lamar, Klein, Houston, Polk, Douglas County systems; Seminole County schools), state agencies (Georgia, Texas HHS, Michigan MDOC), and municipal development entities (Invest Atlanta). Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Michigan and Florida. Because the code's nominal commodity—candle holders—does not appear in any of these solicitations, pursue or skip decisions should treat this code as inactive for the purposes of state and local business development.
