UNSPSC 48101535: Commercial use salamander grill

Eye level grill usually with top heat only. The phrase salamander differentiates this unit from Char (charcoal) grills, or Griddle (Flat surface) grills

UNSPSC 48101535 Commercial use salamander grill is a Commodity code covering specialized cooking equipment and related kitchen apparatus procured by state and local education and foodservice operations. State and local governments under this code buy commercial-grade cooking equipment including salamander grills, ranges, steamers, ovens, and associated kitchen appliances, along with replacement parts, maintenance supplies, and repair services. The issuing bodies soliciting under the code include school districts operating large foodservice operations across multiple campuses. Northside Independent School District (NISD), the fourth largest public school system in Texas, represents the primary recent buyer, procuring kitchen equipment, parts, supplies, rentals, repairs, and services to support 132 schools and 15 support sites.

NISD's Invitation for Bid 2026-078, posted May 5, 2026 with response due May 28, 2026, exemplifies the scope and structure of procurement under this code. The district seeks sealed bids through its Bonfire Portal for commercial kitchen equipment and services with firm pricing maintained for one year, requiring vendors to maintain online catalogs accessible across all campuses, provide three non-NISD references, and furnish certificates of insurance naming NISD as certificate holder. The contract awards for one year with options to renew for two additional one-year periods, with the district retaining discretion to award to single or multiple suppliers on a line-item basis. All shipping is FOB Destination with inside delivery and liftgate-capable trucking required for pallet shipments; payment terms are Net 30 days from invoice receipt via Electronic Funds Transfer. NISD is a member of the Central Texas Purchasing Alliance (CTPA), meaning awarded contracts may be adopted by other CTPA member districts at the same or better pricing, potentially expanding successful bids' reach across the region.
