UNSPSC 70101904: Shrimp farming

UNSPSC 70101904 Shrimp farming is a Commodity code that state and local procurement offices use to tag bait and live-bait sourcing for recreational and public fishing facilities. The recent solicitations under this code show government buying live bait (primarily for marina operations) and, in one case, fish nursery operations to support public fishing access. Issuing bodies include county governments and county park authorities. The work scope spans routine bait supply contracting for active marinas and specialized facility sub-leases for fingerling trout rearing to support public fishing events and disadvantaged-population angling access.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Pennsylvania. The Board of Commissioners, Glynn County, Georgia posted RFP26-035 on May 26, 2026, seeking sealed technical and fee proposals for a bait provider under a multi-year contract at Blythe Island Regional Park Marina, with proposals due July 1, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. via the County's eProcurement Portal and a non-mandatory pre-proposal conference on June 2, 2026. Montgomery County, Pennsylvania posted a separate solicitation (Number 2629) on May 11, 2026, seeking responses from insured for-profit, non-profit, and public entities for a 10-year sub-lease to maintain and operate a trout nursery facility at 57 Upper Farm Road, Norristown, with proposals due June 4, 2026 through the Bonfire portal; the facility includes approximately 6 pool raceways and is intended to rear fingerling trout for public fishing derbies and disadvantaged populations. Neither solicitation specifies contract value or budget range. Both jurisdictions conducted pre-bid site visits or virtual attendance options and enforced Q&A submission deadlines through centralized procurement portals.
