About UNSPSC 50122001
UNSPSC 50122001 Wild caught Alaska pollock, a Commodity code, encompasses seafood protein sourcing for institutional food service—school districts, state agencies, and county governments procure pollock as a component within broader food service contracts rather than as a standalone commodity. Recent state and local solicitations show pollock embedded within comprehensive grocery and food distribution bids for school nutrition programs and municipal food systems, where it appears as a line item among proteins, frozen items, and prepared entrees. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Houston County School District (Georgia), Lamar County School District (Georgia), Dougherty County Board of Education (Georgia), Early County Schools (Georgia), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), Treutlen County School Food Authority (Georgia), Richmond County Board of Education (Georgia), City Schools of Decatur (Georgia), and Gwinnett County (Georgia) all soliciting food supplies that include frozen proteins such as pollock. State-level procurement also appears: the State of Georgia issued a general food supplies IFB in May 2026. Invest Atlanta (a municipal economic development authority) is pursuing food distribution capability for its Priority Communities grocery initiative, which would include sourcing of proteins like pollock for retail operations.
Georgia dominates recent activity, with school districts across the state's central and southern regions—Houston County, Lamar County, Dougherty County, Early County, Hancock County, Douglas County, Treutlen County, Richmond County, Decatur, and Gwinnett County—all posting food bids between February and July 2026. Houston County School District's ITB 27-001, posted March 13, 2026 with bids due April 17, 2026, represents the largest single opportunity at approximately $14 million annually across 350,000 cases, with weekly mandatory direct delivery to approximately 39 schools. Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003, posted January 21, 2026 with a February 18, 2026 deadline, targets $9 million annually for a main-line food distributor supplying 32,000 meals daily across 32 schools. Smaller school districts and county systems across Georgia—Hancock County (June 2026), Early County (May 2026), Treutlen County (April 2026), Lamar County (April 2026), Richmond County (April 2026), and Dougherty County (April 2026)—each issued food supply IFBs or RFQs with response dates concentrated in May and June 2026. The State of Georgia's May 15, 2026 posting (due June 22, 2026) and Invest Atlanta's July 6, 2026 RFP (due August 6, 2026) extend activity to state and municipal levels, though the latter focuses on food distribution and retail operations rather than direct product procurement.
