About UNSPSC 50122157
UNSPSC 50122157 Farm raised tilapia is a Commodity code that state and local governments rarely procure directly; the recent solicitation activity shows no purchasing for tilapia as a standalone product line. School districts, county boards of education, and municipal agencies across Georgia have issued multiple food-service solicitations since January 2026—including comprehensive RFPs and IFBs for fresh produce, dairy, frozen foods, and general groceries—but tilapia does not appear as a line item in any of these bids. The Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Schools, Lamar County Schools, Richmond County Schools, Houston County Schools, Douglas County Schools, Dougherty County Schools, Decatur City Schools, Treutlen County Schools, and Gwinnett County all solicited food products across proteins, seafood, and produce categories, yet tilapia was not explicitly specified or itemized in the accessible bid documentation.
The code shows no measurable recent activity in state and local procurement. Georgia school nutrition programs and municipal food distribution initiatives have emphasized fresh produce, dairy, frozen chicken and beef, and prepared convenience items, but farm-raised tilapia does not surface in current opportunities. The Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution (due February 18, 2026) and Houston County School District's direct-delivery food bid (due April 17, 2026) represent the largest and most active solicitations by annual contract value, but neither names tilapia among required or preferred items. If pursuing this code, monitor school district commodity preferences and USDA Child Nutrition Program ingredient lists; adoption of tilapia in school meal planning would likely trigger state or regional cooperative-purchasing opportunities, but that shift is not evident in current bid activity.
