UNSPSC 50122017: Wild caught coho salmon

In this classification this entry represents the species of fish known as Coho Salmon, that was raised in the wild and harvested as an adult, and is presumed to have grown as an organic and Non GMO species.

UNSPSC 50122017 Wild caught coho salmon is a Commodity code, but state and local procurement activity under it has not produced recent solicitations matching the code's nominal scope. The most recent opportunities posted under this code actually solicit fish sticks, grocery products for school nutrition programs, food distribution services, and general food service supplies for correctional institutions and school districts—none of which are specifically wild caught coho salmon or specify salmon as a primary product category. Georgia's Department of Administrative Services issued an RFQ on October 6, 2026 for 40,000-pound increments of fish sticks for Georgia Correctional Industries (due October 12, 2026), and the State of Georgia posted a broader May 15, 2026 solicitation for food, supplies, and kitchen products without specification of seafood type. The Hancock County Board of Education, Richmond County Board of Education, and Early County Board of Education in Georgia have all issued school nutrition RFQs and IFBs since May 2026 covering line-item food procurement across proteins, produce, dairy, and non-food supplies; these purchasing vehicles accept bids for multiple product categories including seafood offerings, but do not restrict procurement to wild caught coho salmon specifically.

Recent activity under this code is geographically concentrated in Georgia, where state agencies, county boards of education, and special-purpose districts (Invest Atlanta) are the primary issuing bodies. The pattern shows school districts as repeat buyers: Hancock County (June 2026), Early County (May 2026), and Richmond County (April 2026) all issued school nutrition food bids with delivery to multiple school locations and contract terms running through June 2027 or 2028, with Buy American provisions and USDA compliance mandatory. These school nutrition procurements emphasize line-item pricing, firm pricing for 60–90 days, F.O.B. delivery to specified locations, and vendor responsibility for all freight and fuel charges included in quoted unit prices. No other states or issuing bodies appear in the recent opportunities block, and no solicitation explicitly requires wild caught coho salmon or distinguishes it from farmed or other salmon varieties.
