About UNSPSC 50121600
UNSPSC 50121600 Shellfish is a Class code encompassing the supply and delivery of shellfish products — including quahogs, clams, and related bivalves — to state and local institutions. State and local governments procure shellfish primarily for institutional food service, including correctional facilities, youth detention centers, school nutrition programs, and county sheriff operations. The work involves harvesting from certified aquaculture or wild-harvest areas, packaging to specification, and transportation to delivery points. Issuing bodies span state departments of administrative services, county boards of education, municipal procurement offices, county sheriff departments, and state youth facilities. School districts and institutional food service appear as the primary consumers in recent solicitations.
Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in Georgia and Nevada, with additional solicitations in Massachusetts and California. The Town of Westport, Massachusetts posted an IFB on October 15, 2026 seeking supply and delivery of up to 2,000 bushels of fecal coliform-contaminated quahogs from DMF-certified harvest areas, with bids due November 2, 2026. Georgia's Department of Administrative Services posted an RFQ on October 6, 2026 for fish sticks (a processed shellfish-derived product) to supply Georgia Correctional Industries, with responses due October 12, 2026. Nevada Youth Training Center issued quarterly meat solicitations in June and August 2026, though the August 31, 2026 posting addressed meat rather than shellfish. Santa Clara County posted an ITB on July 19, 2026 for meat and cheese products without shellfish specification. School district food procurement in Georgia (Tattnall County Board of Education, June 2026; Early County Board of Education, May 2026) included shellfish as part of broader protein sourcing but did not isolate shellfish as a standalone line item. The code shows limited standalone shellfish procurement — most activity bundles shellfish within broader food service categories.
