UNSPSC 50122063 Wild caught yellow perch is a Commodity code that encompasses fish and seafood products supplied to institutional food-service operations, though recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show limited direct alignment with wild-caught yellow perch specifically. Instead, the code appears in the procurement records of institutional buyers sourcing broad categories of protein and prepared fish products—including fish sticks, frozen fish fillets, and other processed seafood items—for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and municipal food distribution networks. The issuing bodies are predominantly Georgia-based school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, Richmond County Board of Education), state purchasing offices (Georgia Department of Administrative Services), and municipal economic-development authorities (Invest Atlanta). These jurisdictions buy fish and seafood products as line items within larger grocery and food-service procurement frameworks rather than as standalone commodity purchases, typically bundling them with proteins, produce, dairy, and non-food supplies under consolidated food contracts.
