UNSPSC 54101604: Earrings

UNSPSC 54101604 Earrings (Commodity) covers costume jewelry earrings and related accessories that state and local governments procure for retail resale, museum gift shops, and visitor centers. The single recent opportunity in the dataset shows a county procuring sea-life-themed costume jewelry — necklaces, bracelets, and earrings — for a marine science center gift shop, suggesting the code captures specialty and thematic jewelry items bought by public attractions and cultural institutions rather than personal adornment procurement for staff or standard inventory. Volusia County's solicitation required bidders to be direct manufacturers, designers, or exclusive brand owners; distributors and resellers were ineligible, narrowing competition to producers with proprietary or private-label control. The issuing body in this case is a county government, and the procurement vehicle is a Master Agreement with an initial three-year term and two optional one-year renewals.

The single posted opportunity comes from Volusia County, Florida. Volusia County issued IFB 26-B-93JJ for Marine Science Center Sealife Inspired Costume Jewelry with a response deadline of August 12, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. EST. The scope covered 21 specific costume jewelry items — earrings, necklaces, and bracelets in sea turtle, seahorse, shark, starfish, jellyfish, and octopus designs — with approximately 858 units estimated across the initial three-year term. A 3% local preference applied to vendors with documented permanent business locations in Brevard, Lake, Orange, Osceola, Seminole, or Volusia County for at least six months; a 2% preference applied to prime contractors using local subcontractors for 51% or greater of work. Deliveries were to be made within fourteen days of order to the Marine Science Center at 100 Lighthouse Drive, Ponce Inlet, Florida, and pricing was to remain firm for ninety days from solicitation opening with FOB Destination terms.
