UNSPSC 48101904: Food service stemware

UNSPSC 48101904 Food service stemware is a Commodity code that encompasses glassware and drinkware products used in foodservice operations at public facilities. Based on recent state and local solicitations, the code covers the procurement of stemware and related smallwares — including glasses, cups, and service vessels — from established manufacturers for use in hospitality, convention, and institutional dining settings. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county convention centers and other public hospitality entities; the recent activity shows counties managing large public facilities procuring standardized smallwares inventories under multi-year framework agreements to support ongoing operations and food service programs.

Orange County, Florida issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB Y26-165) in April 2026 for food and beverage smallwares — including products from manufacturers such as Libbey and Front of the House — to supply the Orange County Convention Center under a five-year contract with pricing structured as a fixed percentage discount off manufacturer's suggested retail price, with a total estimated value of $2,155,000 across all manufacturers and five years, with sealed offers due April 30, 2026. The solicitation required electronic submission through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform, three client references for similar term contract work within the prior ten years, and $1,000,000 in commercial general liability insurance. Service Disabled Veteran Business enterprises were eligible for an 8% bid preference depending on total contract value. Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southeast, with Orange County, Florida representing the most directly relevant recent opportunity; a concurrent Sourcewell cooperative purchasing solicitation (RFP #061626 posted May 2026, due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment shows broader multistate reach across Washington and other jurisdictions but does not align with food service stemware scope.
