UNSPSC 50192113: Dried shellfish and fish fillet

A food that is seasoned and processed or dried by changing the original form of fish or shellfish.

UNSPSC 50192113 Dried shellfish and fish fillet is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure frozen and refrigerated fish products, particularly fish sticks and other prepared seafood items for institutional food service. Recent solicitations show state correctional agencies, school districts, and food-service operators purchasing fish sticks in bulk—Georgia's Department of Administrative Services solicited 40,000-pound increments of fish sticks for Georgia Correctional Industries in October 2026—alongside broader school nutrition contracts that include seafood as line items within comprehensive frozen-product procurement. The issuing bodies are primarily state correctional agencies and independent school districts; Georgia's Department of Administrative Services and the Early County Board of Education and Richmond County Board of Education appear in the recent record. The code captures products ordered as part of National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance purchasing, where fish and shellfish items are included alongside poultry, beef, and other proteins meeting USDA Grade A standards and Child Nutrition label requirements.

Georgia dominates the recent activity under this code. The most recent opportunity is Georgia's Department of Administrative Services' RFQ 92100ERFQ0020702027 for fish sticks (response due October 12, 2026), specifying 40,000-pound delivery increments with all-inclusive bid pricing and delivery. Early County Board of Education and Richmond County Board of Education in Georgia issued broader food procurement RFQs in May and June 2026 that include seafood as line items within multi-category frozen, refrigerated, and dry-storage product bids supporting school meal programs. The Invest Atlanta food distribution RFP issued in July 2026 includes food distributor capacity to supply grocery markets with fresh and frozen products, though the broader scope of that opportunity extends beyond this Commodity code.
