UNSPSC 50112043 Goose, processed with additions is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code itself describes a narrow, specialized meat product — processed goose — but the most recent state and local opportunities tagged under it actually solicit for broader food-service and school-nutrition supplies, including fresh produce, eggs, poultry products (chicken, turkey, beef), and processed USDA commodity items. The mismatch between the code name and actual buying patterns suggests that state and local agencies may be using this code as a catch-all for protein and food-service procurement, or that the tagging does not reflect precise commodity classification. School districts and state health agencies dominate the issuing-body mix, with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring food and consumable products for state-supported living centers and multiple Georgia school districts (DeKalb County School District, Douglas County School System, Early County Board of Education) actively sourcing processed meats, fresh produce, and eggs for school meal programs.

Recent solicitations cluster in Georgia and Texas. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products to supply the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, with bids due July 13, 2026 and a historical contract value of $1.5 million annually. In Georgia, the DeKalb County School District posted ITB 26-729 in February 2026 for USDA product processing services (beef, poultry, turkey, and cheese products) with a pre-bid conference on March 17, 2026, and bids due March 31, 2026. The Douglas County School System issued RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative in February 2026 for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two areas, with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, and bids due March 4, 2026. Early County Board of Education solicited line-by-line bids for food and non-food school meal program products in May 2026 with responses due June 8, 2026. School districts emphasize Buy American compliance, HACCP certification, food-recall procedures, and competitive pricing indexed to USDA and Consumer Price Index benchmarks.
