About UNSPSC 50122001
UNSPSC 50122001 Wild caught alaska pollock is a Commodity code capturing frozen seafood products state and local governments procure for institutional food service, including school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and municipal food distribution operations. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing fish and seafood-based prepared foods — fish sticks, frozen fish fillets, and other protein items — in bulk quantities measured in cases or pounds, delivered to multiple school locations, correctional facilities, or distribution centers. The work encompasses supplier qualification (food safety certification, HACCP plan compliance, USDA Grade A standards), logistics and delivery coordination to designated sites, compliance with Buy American provisions and federal nutrition labeling requirements, and warranty and recall management obligations. Issuing bodies include state departments of administrative services, county boards of education, school nutrition programs, and economic development authorities operating municipal food distribution networks. School districts dominate recent activity, soliciting suppliers across multiple product categories (proteins, dairy, produce, non-food items) alongside or separate from seafood-specific buys.
Georgia shows the heaviest recent concentration: Georgia's Department of Administrative Services issued a fish sticks bid (solicitation 92100ERFQ0020702027, RFQ, due October 12, 2026) for Georgia Correctional Industries requiring 40,000-pound delivery increments; the State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and kitchen products solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009, due June 22, 2026); and multiple Georgia county school districts (Hancock County, Early County, Richmond County in Augusta) issued overlapping grocery and food supplier RFQs and IFBs in May and June 2026 spanning the contract year 2026–2027 and 2026–2028. Invest Atlanta also issued a dual-track RFP (PE66789NONST2027000000021, due August 6, 2026) seeking food distributors with 10% Georgia-based sourcing and a path to 20% within 24 months to supply municipal grocery markets in Priority Communities. The recent-opportunity mix reflects school lunch program procurement cycles and institutional foodservice renewal scheduling concentrated in late spring and early summer 2026, with firm pricing requirements, comprehensive compliance certifications, and supplier consolidation around delivery logistics.
