UNSPSC 50122420: Wild caught octopus

In this classification, this entry represents the species of shellfish known as Octopus, 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 50122420 Wild caught octopus (Commodity) does not appear in current state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show no alignment with the commodity scope — the sourcing activity involves school nutrition programs, municipal food distribution services, and supplemental grocery procurement for county government departments, all of which center on mainstream grocery staples, produce, dairy, proteins, and prepared foods rather than specialty seafood items like wild caught octopus. The code shows little relevant recent activity in state and local contracting.

The issuing bodies across the posted opportunities — Georgia school districts (Houston County, Douglas County, Hancock County, Early County, Dougherty County, Richmond County, Lamar County, City Schools of Decatur, Treutlen County), the State of Georgia procurement office, Invest Atlanta, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, and other local jurisdictions — are uniformly procuring broad commodity food and grocery supplies through IFBs and RFPs. None of the 17 recent opportunities reference specialty seafood procurement, international food sourcing, or any activity consistent with wild caught octopus supply chains. The geographic concentration is entirely in Georgia, reflecting local school nutrition programs and state agency food service needs. Without representative opportunities demonstrating actual demand for this commodity at the state and local level, UNSPSC 50122420 presents no actionable business development signal for firms pursuing public-sector contracts.
