UNSPSC 50111524 Lamb or mutton, minimally processed with additions is a Commodity code, but state and local governments show little relevant recent procurement activity under it. Of the 27 recent opportunities in the dataset tagged to this code, only one — Head Start of Greater Dallas's June 2026 grocery procurement — explicitly mentions lamb or mutton as a product line. The remaining 26 opportunities solicit chicken, turkey, pork, beef, ham, bologna, eggs, produce, and prepared foods across correctional facilities, school districts, and youth training centers. The code's nominal scope does not align with current state and local buying patterns, which favor poultry, beef, and pork products for institutional food service.

The single relevant opportunity comes from Head Start of Greater Dallas, which posted IFB 26-GP on June 24, 2026 (closed same day) to procure approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat products for child care programs serving ages 6 weeks to 5 years, with an estimated value of $969,460.94 and a one-year initial term plus four optional renewals. The evaluation weighted unit price most heavily, followed by product quality, delivery and service, specification compliance, and small-business/minority/woman-owned status. Sealed bids closed June 24, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. in Dallas with a pre-bid conference scheduled for April 16, 2026. Most other solicitations in the dataset originate from the Oregon Department of Corrections, Georgia Correctional Industries, and school districts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Virginia, but these procure poultry, beef, and pork rather than lamb or mutton. Without clear market demand under this specific code, pursuit is not recommended unless the supplier can position lamb or mutton competitively within broader institutional meat supply relationships.
