UNSPSC 50122143: Farm raised mullet

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

UNSPSC 50122143 Farm raised mullet (Commodity) covers protein products for institutional food service, though recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code focus primarily on fish sticks and broader grocery supplies rather than whole mullet. State and local buying entities — chiefly school districts and state food service programs — procure these items to supply cafeterias, correctional facilities, and community food distribution operations. The work involves delivering protein products in bulk quantities per purchase order, meeting USDA nutritional standards and food safety certifications, and complying with Buy American domestic-content requirements and HACCP food traceability protocols. Vendors must maintain general liability insurance ($500,000 minimum per occurrence), E-Verify compliance, and submit detailed specification-sheet responses documenting compliance with itemized product requirements; shortcuts such as "comply," checkmarks, or ditto marks disqualify bids.

Recent opportunities cluster in Georgia, with Georgia's Department of Administrative Services soliciting fish sticks for Georgia Correctional Industries (bids due October 12, 2026, IFB), Hancock County Board of Education requesting grocery and food service supplies including proteins for School Year 2026-2027 (IFB #SN002-2027, bids due June 26, 2026), Early County Board of Education seeking food items supporting the National School Lunch Program (bids due June 8, 2026), and Richmond County Board of Education in Augusta issuing RFQ #26-204 for grocery products including frozen fish and protein items for 2026-2028 (bids due May 27, 2026). A broader State of Georgia food procurement (solicitation 26_003, due June 22, 2026) and Invest Atlanta's dual-track RFP for food distribution services (due August 6, 2026) indicate additional institutional demand. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with state agencies and specialized food distribution entities representing secondary buyers. Delivery requirements include F.O.B. school and facility locations with transportation included in bid pricing; no separate fuel surcharges are permitted.
