UNSPSC 50102500: Nuts excluding wild edible nuts and groundnuts

Any large, oily kernel found within a shell, cultivated and used in or as food, excluding wild groundnuts

UNSPSC 50102500 Nuts excluding wild edible nuts and groundnuts is a Class code, but state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not reflect the nominal commodity scope. Recent solicitations tagged to this code solicited assorted snack products (including trail mix, peanut butter and jelly crackers, salted peanuts, and sunflower seeds) for institutional canteens and food-service operations, as well as broader food and consumable products for state-supported living centers and weekly food supply fulfillment. The work being bought consists of product supply and delivery on an as-needed or recurring quarterly basis, with bidders submitting firm, fixed unit pricing on standardized pricing sheets. Issuing bodies are primarily state-level health and human services agencies and institutional operators procuring for cafeterias, canteens, and food-service programs at state facilities including hospitals and living centers.

The code shows recent activity concentrated in Texas and Georgia, with activity also in Illinois. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has issued multiple IFBs for snack products at Rusk State Hospital (Solicitation HHS0017763, due August 4, 2026, later reissued as HHS0017763V2 due August 21, 2026) and a broader food and consumable products IFB for the El Paso State Supported Living Center (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026), with the latter carrying a prior-period historical spend of $1.5 million. The State of Illinois posted an FY-27 quarterly food order solicitation (27497DVAQUINCB52821, due June 26, 2026), and the State of Georgia solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026). Texas opportunities typically allow 240-day firm pricing validity periods and permit optional HUB participation. No vendor names, awarded contractors, or set-aside program details beyond optional HUB consideration are identified in the posted materials.
