UNSPSC 50201718: Iced tea

Contains a non alcoholic beverage and has a flavour of tea and is sweet.

UNSPSC 50201718 Iced tea, a Commodity code, spans beverage products procured by state and local governments as part of broader food-service supply contracts for schools, correctional facilities, and municipal venues. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying iced tea and similar ready-to-drink beverages as line items within master grocery supply agreements, cafeteria food products, and exclusive pouring-rights arrangements at sports facilities, rather than as standalone procurements. The issuing bodies include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state criminal justice agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice through the Texas Comptroller), and municipal facilities operators (City of Peoria, Arizona). Work ranges from routine weekly delivery of branded and house-label ready-to-drink products to schools and central food-service warehouses, to equipment provision and fountain-beverage management at sports complexes.

Activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Virginia, Missouri, and Arizona, with school nutrition procurement driving the largest volume. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB No. 304T-26-300CF (posted May 4, 2026, response due May 4, 2026) for cafeteria food products across five TDCJ warehouse areas, encompassing beverages among 382 line items with firm fixed pricing and FOB Destination delivery; Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 (posted April 6, 2026, response due April 27, 2026) for Master Grocery K-12 covering 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens with weekly Monday-Friday deliveries; Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery-items solicitation (posted March 31, 2026, response due April 29, 2026) encompassing over 900 line items for the 2026-27 school year; and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (posted February 4, 2026, response due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million in one area. No set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises appear in the recent block; all require proof of liability insurance and compliance with federal regulations including debarment certification.
