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, a Commodity code, captures state and local procurement of frozen fish products—predominantly fish sticks and other prepared seafood items—for institutional food service. Recent solicitations show state and local agencies buying fish products as components of broader food-service supply contracts, particularly for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and municipal food distribution. The work involves delivering frozen fish products in bulk quantities to specification, with all-inclusive pricing covering freight and handling, HACCP compliance, food-safety certification, traceability systems, and adherence to USDA standards including Buy American provisions when applicable. Issuing bodies include state correctional agencies (Georgia Department of Administrative Services), school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Richmond County Board of Education), and economic-development authorities managing municipal food distribution (Invest Atlanta). School districts dominate recent activity under the code.

Geographic activity centers in Georgia, where five of six recent opportunities originated—including Georgia Correctional Industries' fish-stick procurement (IFB due October 12, 2026), Hancock County schools' multi-category IFB for School Year 2026–2027 (bids due June 26, 2026), and Richmond County's two-year RFQ for grocery products including frozen seafood (RFQ #26-204, due May 27, 2026). The most recent and operationally distinct opportunity is Georgia Department of Administrative Services' solicitation 92100ERFQ0020702027 for fish sticks to supply Georgia Correctional Industries, with responses due October 12, 2026, calling for 40,000-pound increments delivered all-inclusive with detailed specification-sheet compliance required in PDF format through the GA@Work portal. School districts' broader grocery RFQs and IFBs name fish products as line items within frozen-protein categories but do not isolate procurement volume or emphasize fish as a primary focus; the correctional-facility buy signals more substantial and dedicated flounder- or fish-stick demand within the state.
