UNSPSC 50111607: Organic veal, minimally processed without additions

Products from young animals of the genus Bos, these products have been grown, handled, and transported in a manner that qualifies them to be certified as organic.

UNSPSC 50111607 Organic veal, minimally processed without additions is a Commodity code that in practice covers beef and meat procurement for state institutions, school nutrition programs, and facility food service operations—a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what state and local governments are actually buying under it. Recent solicitations posted under this code include beef trim and beef fat for correctional facilities, chicken processing services for school districts, comprehensive food service groceries spanning proteins and prepared items for state living centers, and farm-to-school meat and produce procurement for school nutrition services. Issuing bodies are predominantly state health and human services agencies, county school districts, and independent school districts, with activity concentrated in Georgia and Texas. The Georgia Department of Administrative Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Cherokee County School District, Garland Independent School District, and Early County Board of Education have all posted solicitations under or aligned with this code in the past five months.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity across other state school systems. Representative recent opportunities include the Georgia Department of Administrative Services' IFB for beef trim and beef fat due October 14, 2026, serving Georgia Correctional Industries; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's August 2026 IFBs (HHS0017798 and HHS0017799) for canteen and food service groceries at Mexia State Supported Living Center, with a historical FY25 value of approximately $320,500 combined; Cherokee County School District's June 2026 RFP for chicken processing services; and Garland Independent School District's July 2026 RFP for farm-to-school local meats and produce. Early County Board of Education's June 2026 bid solicitation for approximately 300+ food items including meats, poultry, and dairy for its National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs illustrates the volume and breadth typical of school-district food procurement. The code shows active procurement but limited alignment with its stated commodity definition—opportunities are dominated by institutional food service rather than organic veal specifically.
