UNSPSC 50111624: Organic horse, minimally processed with additions

Products from animals of the species Equus caballus (domestic horse), these products have been grown, handled, and transported in a manner that qualifies them to be certified as organic.

UNSPSC 50111624 Organic horse, minimally processed with additions is a Commodity code that shows no relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities block contains seventeen school nutrition and institutional food supply solicitations across Georgia, Missouri, and Texas—all seeking conventional meat proteins (beef, poultry, pork), fresh produce, eggs, dairy, and processed grocery items for school lunch programs and state health facilities. None of these opportunities reference organic horse meat or equine products. The code's nominal scope does not align with the actual food procurement patterns observed in current state and local contracting.

The mismatch reflects the narrow and specialized nature of the commodity. State and local food service procurement—dominated by school districts, state health agencies, and institutional food operations—centers on USDA-approved commodity meats (beef, poultry, pork, turkey), fresh produce, dairy, and processed grocery items. Organic horse meat, a specialty protein with minimal domestic commercial availability and limited food service acceptance, does not appear in recent IFBs, RFPs, or ITBs from any of the active jurisdictions surveyed. No issuing body, response date, or representative opportunity can be cited under this code based on the sourced record.
