UNSPSC 39112602: Candle holder

UNSPSC 39112602 Candle holder is a Commodity code that sees minimal direct procurement activity in state and local government. Recent solicitations tagged under this code do not reflect candle holder purchases; instead, the opportunities in the block span food service, groceries, commissary operations, and school nutrition supplies—none of which align with the code's nominal scope. The Michigan Department of Corrections' two prisoner store RFPs (posted April 24 and May 8, 2026, due June 15, 2026) procure commissary goods including healthcare, hygiene, stationery, food, and miscellaneous items across 26 facilities serving 33,000 incarcerated individuals, with a $240 million five-year award to Keefe Commissary Network recommended as of September 4, 2026. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Rusk State Hospital, and several Georgia school districts (Tattnall County, Hancock County, Coffee County) and Invest Atlanta all solicited food, frozen meals, candy, groceries, and distribution services in June through September 2026, none of which fall under candle holder procurement.

The geographic spread in the block reflects activity concentrated in Michigan (prisoner commissary), Texas (state hospital food service), and Georgia (school nutrition and municipal food distribution), with no recent opportunities in other states. The issuing bodies are primarily state corrections and health departments, county school boards, and city economic development authorities—all seeking food and meal products rather than housewares or decorative items. The code appears to lack substantive state and local procurement volume; the tagging appears to be a classification misalignment rather than evidence of active market demand for candles or candle holders.
