UNSPSC 52152105: Shot glass

A small glass designed to hold or measure spirits or liquor, which is either drunk straight from the glass ("a shot") or poured into a mixed drink.

UNSPSC 52152105 Shot glass is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect purchases of shot glasses or glassware but instead encompass janitorial supplies, kitchen supplies broadly, beverage management services, and law enforcement equipment — none of which constitutes the product category the code describes. Clayton County Public Schools posted RFP00527 for concessions, catering, and premium beverage management services (due November 10, 2026), and Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners issued ITB2600319 for janitorial and operational supplies for the Fire Rescue Department (due July 24, 2026, estimated value $765,679.84). Neither opportunity signals procurement of shot glasses as a discrete line item or product class.

The geographic activity reflected in the tagging shows issuing bodies in Georgia and Florida, with a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing vehicle (based in Minnesota) advertising law enforcement equipment to participating entities across Washington state and nationally. The mismatch between the code's definition and the actual work being solicited suggests that state and local procurement offices are either applying this code incorrectly to broader goods categories or shot glass procurement, if it occurs, is bundled into larger commodity contracts or managed through different coding. Firms evaluating this code should verify actual buying patterns through direct outreach to individual jurisdictions rather than rely on recent opportunity tagging to this Commodity code.
