UNSPSC 50122023 Wild caught dover sole is a Commodity code covering seafood products procured by state and local governments, but the recent solicitations tagged under this code show minimal relevance to the nominal scope—the opportunities instead reflect broad food procurement by correctional facilities, school districts, and community development entities. State and local governments are buying seafood as a component within larger grocery and food service supply contracts rather than as a standalone product line. The issuing bodies include state departments (Georgia Department of Administrative Services), county boards of education (Hancock County, Early County, Richmond County), independent school districts, and economic development authorities (Invest Atlanta). School nutrition programs dominate the recent activity, procuring seafood as one item among 300+ line items in annual food bids; correctional industries and municipal market development represent secondary use cases.

Georgia accounts for the majority of recent activity under this code, with five opportunities posted between May and October 2026. Representative recent solicitations include Georgia's Department of Administrative Services IFB 92100ERFQ0020702027 for fish sticks (40,000-pound increments delivered to Georgia Correctional Industries, due October 12, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 for school nutrition grocery supplies including proteins and seafood across 1,200+ line items (due June 26, 2026); Early County Board of Education RFP for food products supporting the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs with 300+ food items and seafood components (due June 8, 2026); and Richmond County Board of Education RFQ #26-204 for grocery products 2026–2028 including frozen seafood products (due May 27, 2026). All school-based solicitations emphasize Buy American provisions, HACCP compliance, E-Verify verification, and firm pricing inclusive of delivery, with contract periods typically running one to three years. The code shows limited standalone activity and operates primarily as a line-item classification within larger food procurement vehicles rather than as a distinct procurement category.
