UNSPSC 50112011 Chicken, processed with additions (Commodity) covers fully cooked, processed chicken products supplied to school districts, state health and human services facilities, and other public institutions — typically breaded patties, fillets, nuggets, strips, popcorn chicken, and shredded chicken, individually quick frozen and meeting USDA commodity specifications, sodium limits, whole-grain breading standards, and child nutrition labeling requirements. State and local buyers under this code are predominantly school districts at the individual and cooperative-purchasing level, alongside state health agencies managing congregate dining. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission and multiple Georgia school districts (Cherokee County, DeKalb County, Early County Board of Education) are active buyers; school nutrition procurement under this code frequently uses cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative to aggregate demand across multi-district regions.
