UNSPSC 50111544 Snake, minimally processed with additions is a Commodity code that represents processed and prepared snake meat products supplied to state and local food service operations. The recent activity under this code reflects procurement by state departments and school districts for food service supply contracts, particularly to support meal programs and institutional kitchens. While the nominal code name specifies snake as the product, the actual solicitations tagged under this code encompass broader food supply categories including meats, poultry, seafood, and processed proteins sourced to meet domestic preference, nutritional, and regulatory requirements.

The Georgia Department of Education and the Early County Board of Education posted the most recent opportunities. Early County Schools issued a line-by-line food bid in May 2026 (Solicitation PE55045NONST2027000000006, due June 8, 2026) seeking approximately 300 food items including meats, poultry, and seafood to supply three schools under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program for the period July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The state of Georgia independently solicited food, supplies, and other kitchen products (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026). Geographic activity is concentrated in Georgia, with school districts and state departments as the primary issuing bodies. Procurement reflects emphasis on domestic sourcing, compliance with USDA whole-grain and nutritional standards, Buy American provisions, HACCP and food safety certification, and firm pricing with escalation tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index benchmarks over six-month intervals.
