UNSPSC 56141701: Metal bowl

Decorative metal bowls of different sizes and shapes combined with furniture and furnishings.

UNSPSC 56141701 Metal bowl is a Commodity code representing discrete tableware and food-service vessels. State and local governments procure metal bowls through general goods and supplies purchasing, typically as components of larger food-service, cafeteria, or institutional equipment packages rather than as standalone line items. The solicitations currently tagged to this code do not reflect direct metal bowl procurement — recent opportunities tagged here include holiday lighting and decorations, office furniture and design services, and administrative notices that fall outside food-service or tableware scope. This code shows little relevant recent activity; the sourced opportunities do not represent typical metal bowl buying patterns.

The geographic spread and issuing-body mix cannot be meaningfully characterized from relevant recent activity. The one substantive solicitation bearing this code — the City of Charlotte's national cooperative purchasing agreement for office furniture, design, and installation services (RFP 2692025148, due April 3, 2026) — has no connection to metal bowl procurement. State and local procurement offices appear to tag metal bowl needs infrequently or route them through broader commodity or food-service equipment codes rather than this Commodity designation. Practitioners tracking this code for business development should verify whether recent local opportunities are being tagged correctly or consider pivoting to higher-tier family codes covering food-service equipment and supplies more broadly.
