UNSPSC 50111650: Organic quail, minimally processed with additions

Products from animals of the family Phasianidae and genera Coturnix, Anurophasis, Perdicula, or Ophrysia, these products have been grown, handled, and transported in a manner that qualifies them to be certified as organic.

UNSPSC 50111650 Organic quail, minimally processed with additions is a Commodity code that represents a highly specialized protein offering with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to the code's nominal scope. The recent solicitations posted under this code reflect a substantial mismatch: state and local governments are instead buying bulk protein procurement for institutional food service — beef trim and beef fat for correctional facilities, chicken processing services for school nutrition programs, and general grocery staples for state hospitals, state supported living centers, and school districts, none of which involve organic quail. The issuing bodies span state departments (Georgia Department of Administrative Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission), school districts (Garland Independent School District, Cherokee County School District, Early County Board of Education), and state-level health and human services agencies.

The geographic footprint is concentrated in Georgia and Texas, where the majority of recent postings originate. Representative opportunities include Georgia Department of Administrative Services seeking beef trim and beef fat under RFQ 92100ERFQ0020722027 (due October 14, 2026) for Georgia Correctional Industries; Texas Health and Human Services Commission posting dual IFBs for canteen and food service groceries at Mexia State Supported Living Center (HHS0017798 and HHS0017799, both due August 25, 2026); Garland Independent School District issuing RFP 274-27 for farm-to-school products including local meats (due July 23, 2026); and Early County Board of Education requesting line-by-line food bids covering meats, poultry, and dairy (due June 8, 2026). The code shows little actionable recent activity specific to organic quail procurement; vendors pursuing this segment should monitor school nutrition and institutional food service RFPs and RFQs, but expect competition heavily weighted toward commodity-scale protein and produce suppliers rather than specialty organic producers.
