UNSPSC 70101703: Fish production

UNSPSC 70101703 Fish production, a Commodity code, covers the supply of live bait and the operation of fish rearing facilities serving public recreation and conservation programs. State and local governments procure under this code for marina bait retail operations and for the management of fingerling trout nurseries that support public fishing access for disadvantaged populations and recreational events. The issuing bodies include county commissions and county parks or natural-resources departments; both recent opportunities come from county government, though the scale and operational complexity vary widely—from retail bait supply at a single marina to the multi-year operation of a dedicated rearing facility under a sub-lease arrangement with dedicated staffing and capital infrastructure.

Recent activity centers in Georgia and Pennsylvania. The Board of Commissioners, Glynn County, Georgia issued RFP 26-035 in May 2026 for a multi-year bait provider contract at Blythe Island Regional Park Marina, with proposals due July 1, 2026. Montgomery County, Pennsylvania solicited via an advertised and interest (A&I) process in May 2026 for a 10-year sub-lease to operate a trout nursery facility at 57 Upper Farm Road, Norristown, Pennsylvania, requiring fingerling production to support fishing access for disadvantaged children, disabled citizens, and public events; the submission deadline was June 4, 2026 through the Bonfire procurement portal. Neither solicitation disclosed an award value or budget range. Both opportunities required formal pre-bid or pre-proposal meetings and responses through county e-procurement platforms.
