UNSPSC 50122519: Farm raised king crab

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

UNSPSC 50122519 Farm raised king crab is a Commodity code that sees little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The source contains no solicitations explicitly seeking farm-raised king crab or seafood products matching this code's scope. School districts, county boards of education, and other state and local issuing bodies posting food procurement solicitations in the source consistently name frozen seafood, fresh produce, proteins, and general grocery items—but king crab does not appear in any of the itemized bid lists, specification sheets, or product categories across solicitations from Invest Atlanta, Hancock County Board of Education, early County Schools, Richmond County Board of Education, Lamar County School District, Dougherty County Board of Education, Treutlen County School Food Authority, Houston County School District, Douglas County School System, and other Georgia jurisdictions reviewed. The recent opportunities reflect school nutrition program procurement focused on commodity-eligible proteins, staple foods, frozen items, and produce suitable for institutional meal service at scale.

The absence of king crab from state and local food service solicitations reflects the commodity's cost profile and specialty positioning, which do not align with the budget constraints and nutritional requirements driving school lunch and public institutional feeding programs. Firms targeting this code should monitor cooperative purchasing vehicles and specialty catering contracts for public events or executive dining rather than routine institutional food service channels. Current signal in this code is flat among the state and local procurement bodies most active in food procurement.
