UNSPSC 50203201: Raw camel milk

Raw milk from a camel

UNSPSC 50203201 Raw camel milk is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities under this designation overwhelmingly reflect procurement of conventional dairy products—fluid milk (whole, reduced-fat, low-fat, skim, lactose-free, and flavored varieties), yogurt, cottage cheese, cream, sour cream, and related dairy items—rather than raw camel milk specifically. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with sealed-bid procurement of milk and dairy supplies for nutrition programs appearing in Georgia (Clayton County, Tattnall County, Hancock County, Coffee County, and Muscogee County school districts), Florida (Seminole County and Pinellas County school districts), and Texas (Head Start of Greater Dallas). State-level purchasing also drives volume: the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procures dairy products and juices for state hospitals and state-supported living centers statewide; the Nevada Youth Training Center solicits quarterly dairy commodities; the Illinois Department of Public Health acquires weekly food orders including dairy for the Illinois Veterans Home at Quincy; and the State of Georgia seeks food supplies including dairy products. The Commodity code does not currently reflect any active state or local procurement of raw camel milk as a distinct product line.

School-district procurement dominates recent activity, with bids typically due in spring and early summer for the following school year and covering multiple milk varieties in both single-serving cartons and bulk containers, yogurt, and other dairy products delivered weekly to district kitchens under firm fixed pricing subject to escalation clauses tied to USDA or Consumer Price Index benchmarks. Buy American provisions apply across most K–12 and state-facility solicitations. Representative recent opportunities include the Pinellas County School District (Florida) issuing a sealed electronic bid for milk, dairy, and juice products due June 11, 2026, for approximately 117 facilities over two years at an estimated contract value of $22.5 million; the Seminole County Public Schools (Florida) seeking milk and dairy products due April 2, 2026, with annual usage of approximately 3.17 million units of 8-ounce chocolate milk cartons alone; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting dairy products and juices due July 15, 2026, with a historical value of $1.6 million annually; and Muscogee County School District (Georgia) soliciting milk and dairy products due May 29, 2026, for delivery across the district's schools. The geographic spread includes active procurement in Georgia, Florida, Texas, Illinois, and Nevada; no recent solicitations under this code name raw camel milk as the commodity, creating a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual purchasing pattern in state and local government.
