UNSPSC 50122027: Wild caught flounder

In this classification this entry represents the species of fish known as Flounder, 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 50122027 Wild caught flounder is a Commodity code that spans fresh and frozen seafood products procured by state and local school nutrition programs, county departments, and municipal food distribution entities. State and local governments do not procure wild caught flounder as a distinct line item; instead, they source fish and seafood products as components of broader grocery and food service supply contracts. The recent solicitations tagged to this code reflect that mismatch—the opportunities listed are school nutrition food bids, county grocery procurement, and municipal food distribution services that may include fish or seafood among dozens of other protein and produce categories, but none isolates flounder or any specific species as a standalone commodity. School districts across Georgia—including Houston County, Hancock County, Early County, Lamar County, Richmond County, Dougherty County, Treutlen County, and Douglas County—have issued Invitations for Bid and Requests for Proposal for comprehensive food service packages with response dates ranging from late April through August 2026. These procurements typically organize proteins generically (meats, poultry, seafood) rather than by species. The State of Georgia and Invest Atlanta have also posted food distribution and supply solicitations with broader scope.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia, where school districts, county boards of education, and municipal authorities post weekly or monthly food service solicitations. No evidence of widespread procurement of wild caught flounder as an identified product line item appears in recent state and local notices. The code shows minimal decision-relevant recent activity because state and local nutrition procurement treats fish and seafood as undifferentiated categories within larger food baskets rather than as species-specific commodities. Vendors supplying seafood to school districts typically bid on broader grocery and protein categories where flounder (if procured at all) would compete alongside tilapia, pollock, and other white fish at wholesale rates anchored to USDA pricing rather than to species specifications.
