UNSPSC 52151665: Domestic skimmer

A flat, sieve-like scoop or spoon used for skimming liquids

UNSPSC 52151665 Domestic skimmer, a Commodity code, nominally covers small kitchen equipment and utensils, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show virtually no activity specifically for skimmers or any close functional equivalent. Instead, the opportunities span a much broader range of food-service and kitchen-supply procurement — smallwares catalogs, paper goods for school nutrition programs, kitchen equipment repair and maintenance services, and miscellaneous kitchen supplies for county and school departments. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and county governments, with occasional activity from city and state health agencies. School Food Authorities (SFAs) dominate the buyer mix, appearing repeatedly across Georgia (Bartow County, Colquitt County, Baconton Community Charter School), Florida (Hillsborough County), and Texas (City of Edinburg, Fulton County Schools, Texas HHSC). These jurisdictions solicit on an annual cycle tied to the school nutrition calendar, typically posting in spring and summer for fall-through-summer contract periods.

Recent opportunities include Bartow County School System's IFB for school nutrition paper goods and supplies (response due September 30, 2026), Colquitt County School Nutrition's sealed-bid solicitation for kitchen smallwares with 295 line items across equipment categories (bids due June 15, 2026), and Baconton Community Charter School's bid for kitchen smallware and small equipment including thermometers, scoops, sheet pans, and food blenders (bids due August 3, 2026). Activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary postings from Florida and Ohio. Gwinnett County issued a smallwares catalog discount contract (response due October 16, 2026) through the Bonfire procurement portal. The code shows little direct relevance to skimmers specifically; the UNSPSC classification appears misaligned with the actual goods and services being procured. Vendors pursuing work under this code should focus on school nutrition supply partnerships, paper-goods distribution, and smallwares provisioning rather than specialized skimmer equipment.
