UNSPSC 50122058: Wild caught tilefish

In this classification this entry represents the species of fish known as Tilefish, 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 50122058 Wild caught tilefish is a Commodity code that in recent state and local solicitations refers broadly to food service procurement — fish products, prepared foods, and groceries supplied to correctional facilities, schools, and municipal food distribution programs rather than wild-caught whole tilefish specifically. State and local buying under this code spans school districts, state agencies, county boards of education, and special-purpose development authorities. Georgia's Department of Administrative Services and multiple Georgia school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Richmond County Board of Education) have posted solicitations for food service supplies in the past six months. School nutrition programs represent the largest segment of recent activity, with districts procuring comprehensive grocery and food service product lines including proteins, produce, dairy, grains, and non-food supplies such as cleaning products and disposables under IFB and RFQ notice types. A single Georgia Correctional Industries procurement posted in October 2026 sought fish sticks specifically — 40,000-pound increments delivered all-inclusive — signaling that the code, despite its nominal tilefish designation, captures prepared and processed seafood products for institutional food service.

Recent opportunities cluster heavily in Georgia, with six of six posted solicitations originating from state agencies, school districts, or development authorities in that state. The Hancock County Board of Education IFB closed June 29, 2026 and covers over 1,200 line items across proteins, produce, dairy, grains, and supplies for three school locations; Early County Board of Education's bid due June 8, 2026 encompasses 300+ food items plus non-food and paper supplies for the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs; Richmond County Board of Education's RFQ #26-204, due May 27, 2026, procures groceries for the 2026–2028 contract period across frozen, refrigerated, and dry storage categories with three-month firm pricing and two optional one-year renewals. Georgia's State of Administrative Services posted a food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid due June 22, 2026. The anomalies are Invest Atlanta's dual-track RFP for retail grocery market operators and food distributors (Category A and Category B, due August 6, 2026) and Georgia Correctional Industries' fish sticks procurement (due October 12, 2026, IFB). All school-based solicitations mandate Buy American provisions over 51 percent domestic content, HACCP compliance, E-Verify authorization, and insurance minimums of $500,000 general liability per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate. No opportunities outside Georgia appear in the recent block.
