About UNSPSC 50122525

UNSPSC 50122525 Farm raised rock shrimp is a Commodity code with little recent activity directly aligned to its narrow scope. State and local procurement offices rarely solicit farm-raised rock shrimp as a standalone line item or contract category. The recent opportunities tagged under this code—primarily school nutrition programs, municipal grocery operations, and county food service contracts—reflect broad grocery and food distribution procurement rather than purchases of a specific crustacean product. School districts, state agencies, county boards of education, and municipal economic development bodies post frequent competitive bids for food supplies across multiple categories (proteins, produce, dairy, grains, frozen items), but rock shrimp does not appear as a named product, specification, or line item in any of the representative solicitations reviewed.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia, where school districts in Houston County, Hancock County, Lamar County, Dougherty County, Douglas County, Decatur, Richmond County, Early County, and statewide procurement offices have posted IFBs, RFPs, and RFQs for general food service supplies during the 2026–2027 school year. The State of Georgia and Invest Atlanta (Atlanta municipal economic development authority) have also issued food procurement RFPs. These opportunities emphasize Buy American compliance, USDA standards, HACCP certification, and domestic sourcing preferences—conditions that would apply to any seafood product—but do not reference rock shrimp specifically. If pursuing this code, focus on positioning as a qualified seafood distributor or specialty food supplier capable of meeting school nutrition and institutional food service requirements, rather than expecting dedicated rock-shrimp-only contracts.
