About UNSPSC 50122515

UNSPSC 50122515 Farm raised greenshell mussel is a Commodity code that does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The sixteen opportunities posted between January and July 2026 across Georgia jurisdictions—spanning school districts, county boards of education, a city school system, a state agency, and a municipal economic development authority—focus on comprehensive food and grocery sourcing for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior services, and municipal markets. The solicitations name frozen proteins, fresh produce, dairy products, canned goods, grain products, condiments, beverages, and paper and chemical supplies as representative categories. No opportunity references mussels, farm-raised seafood, or shellfish procurement; the one solicitation mentioning fresh seafood (Houston County School District's direct-delivery food bid) lists breaded pollock as a protein category without specifying mussel sourcing.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with thirteen of sixteen opportunities posted by Georgia school systems including Houston County, Lamar County, Early County, Hancock County, Dougherty County, Treutlen County, Richmond County, Douglas County, City Schools of Decatur, and Gwinnett County supplementing their nutrition programs. The State of Georgia and Invest Atlanta each posted one opportunity; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted one supplemental-purchase RFP. Activity concentrates in Georgia, with no opportunities posted from other states in the recent block. The wide geographic spread within Georgia—from Albany (Dougherty County) to Atlanta (Invest Atlanta and City Schools of Decatur) to rural counties—reflects state and regional school nutrition demand rather than niche product specialization. Representative opportunities include Houston County School District's ITB 27-001 direct-delivery food bid (posted March 13, 2026, due April 17, 2026, valued at approximately $14 million annually), Douglas County School System's RFP 26-003 for food supply and distribution services (posted January 21, 2026, due February 18, 2026, estimated $9 million annually), and Invest Atlanta's dual-track RFP for food distribution services and municipal market retail operations (posted July 6, 2026, due August 6, 2026). The code shows no current market signal for farm-raised greenshell mussel supply to state and local buyers.
