UNSPSC 52151708: Butter spreaders

This commodity is a piece of cutlery used to spread butter usually on bread. Butter spreaders differ by design, material, and color and are usually made of metal, however, handles on some flatware sets may be made of plastic

UNSPSC 52151708 Butter spreaders is a Commodity code that nominally refers to individual spreading utensils, but recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show minimal alignment with that product scope. The most concrete opportunity tied to the code is Gwinnett County, Georgia's April 2026 solicitation B-2617AM for cutlery supplies for the School Nutrition Program (SNP), which includes spreaders as part of a broader cutlery procurement. The remaining recent opportunities — Hillsborough County's miscellaneous kitchen supplies RFP (due July 8, 2026), Sourcewell's cooperative law enforcement equipment RFP on behalf of multiple Washington counties and national entities (due June 16, 2026), and Atlanta Public Schools' commercial kitchen equipment repair and maintenance solicitations (due May 20, 2026) — bear no direct relationship to butter spreaders or small food-service utensils. The issuing bodies span county procurement offices, regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell), and independent school districts, but the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests this code sees little relevant recent activity.

The code shows recent activity in Georgia and across Sourcewell's multi-state cooperative framework, but the law enforcement equipment RFP, commercial kitchen equipment services, and general kitchen supplies procurements are not substantially related to butter spreaders or similar utensil products. School districts and county governments appear as primary issuing bodies, but the absence of dedicated butter spreader or small utensil solicitations in the recent-opportunities block indicates this Commodity code is either underutilized by state and local governments or routinely mislabeled in solicitation databases. Firms pursuing this code should verify that opportunities are actually sourcing spreaders or related small utensil products before investing in pre-bid or bid preparation.
