UNSPSC 50111700: Non gmo minimally processed meat and poultry products

Meat and poultry products, including those that are sliced or diced, these products have been grown, and harvested in a manner that qualifies them to be certified as Non GMO.

UNSPSC 50111700 Non-GMO minimally processed meat and poultry products is a Class code capturing what state and local governments actually buy under protein procurement for school nutrition programs, state institutional feeding, and farm-to-school initiatives — ground beef, chicken (bone-in, whole muscle, and drumsticks), turkey, pork products (sausage and ham), and locally raised and processed proteins certified to animal welfare and grassfed standards. School districts dominate recent solicitation activity, including independent and county systems across Georgia and Missouri, alongside specialized state procurement by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission for institutional feeding at state hospitals and supported living centers. The code reflects sustained demand across both commodity-based purchasing (USDA processing contracts, Net Off Invoice grocery bids) and direct local-sourcing models emphasizing regional production, chain-of-custody documentation, HACCP compliance, and allergen management. Issuing bodies range from single school districts (Garland Independent School District, Cherokee County School District, City Schools of Decatur) to multi-district cooperative purchasing vehicles (Douglas County School System's GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 districts) to state health agencies.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Missouri, with secondary presence in Texas and broader multi-state reach through cooperative and state-level vehicles. Representative recent opportunities include Garland Independent School District's RFP 274-27 for farm-to-school products (response due July 23, 2026), Bulloch County School District's RFP for locally raised and processed protein with monthly volumes from 800 to 34,000 pounds depending on product (proposals due May 4, 2026), DeKalb County School District's ITB 26-729 for USDA product processing into fully-cooked meat and poultry items (bids due March 31, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0016792V2 for supplemental food and consumables across state facilities statewide with a maximum potential value of $4,500,000 over three years (bid response deadline March 19, 2026), and Rockwood R-VI School District's dual procurements for grocery NOI and grocery items (bids due April 29, 2026). Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services supporting 25,500 students with approximately $9,000,000 annual expenditure (sealed proposals due February 18, 2026) and the GEC cooperative RFP for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One (proposals due March 4, 2026) exemplify scale and multi-district cooperative structures now active in the market.
