UNSPSC 50122102: Farm raised albacore tuna

In this classification this entry represents the species of fish known as Albacore Tuna, that was farm raised and harvested as an adult, and is not presumed to have grown as an organic and Non GMO species.

UNSPSC 50122102 Farm raised albacore tuna (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within school nutrition and municipal food procurement in Georgia. State and local governments under this code procure fresh and frozen seafood products as components of larger food service contracts, typically through school districts acquiring inventory for National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs. The code sees activity primarily from school nutrition programs and municipal food distribution entities rather than standalone seafood procurement, meaning albacore tuna appears as a line item within broader IFBs and RFPs for grocery supply rather than as a dedicated solicitation.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia school districts and state procurement offices across the Atlanta metropolitan region and surrounding counties. The Douglas County School System issued RFP 26-003 (due February 18, 2026) for a main-line food service distributor serving approximately 25,500 students across 32 schools with estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9 million, while Houston County School District solicited ITB 27-001 (due April 17, 2026) for direct food delivery valued at approximately $14 million annually supporting approximately 39 schools. Hancock County Board of Education requested bids on grocery and food service supplies under IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) across over 1,200 line items including proteins and seafood, and Dougherty County Board of Education issued an IFB (due May 19, 2026) for groceries supporting the National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs across 22 school sites. The State of Georgia itself posted IFB Food IFB #1 2027-2026 (due June 1, 2026) for food products and related services across state agencies and institutions. These solicitations typically require compliance with Buy American provisions (51 percent domestic agricultural content), HACCP plans, 24/7 recall accessibility, and temperature control specifications at 41 degrees Fahrenheit or below for refrigerated seafood products. No standalone albacore tuna opportunities appear in the recent block; the code sits within larger food service procurement where seafood is sourced as part of comprehensive grocery or protein categories rather than as a dedicated commodity procurement.
