UNSPSC 10316004: Fresh cut ornamental red pepper

Fresh cut bloom of the ornamental red pepper flowers

UNSPSC 10316004 Fresh cut ornamental red pepper is a Commodity code that spans procurement of ornamental plants and horticultural supplies by state and local governments, though recent opportunities show limited direct activity under this specific code. The recent solicitations tagged to this code encompass broader plant and educational supplies procurement, including hanging flower basket design and maintenance services, general plant purchases, and educational activity catalogs. State and local issuing bodies pursuing these kinds of purchases span education service centers and cooperatives, county parks and recreation divisions, municipal purchasing offices, and city government departments. The Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas, a cooperative purchasing vehicle serving multiple school districts and entities, posted a catalog discount bid on educational activities and supplies (EDACT2628) with proposals due July 30, 2026, representing estimated expenditures of $40.677 billion over a two-year contract term. Los Alamos County in New Mexico issued an RFP (RFP26-55) for design, installation, and maintenance of hanging flower baskets for the town site, with proposals due June 4, 2026 and an estimated contract award date of July 14, 2026; the County offers preferences for Local Business, Resident Business, Native American Resident Business, and Resident Veteran Business classifications under County Code Section 31-261(b).

Geographic activity under this code reflects scattered solicitation across Texas, Georgia, New Mexico, and other states. The City of Dallas issued an Informal Solicitation (IFS 215260) for the purchase of plants with a due date of February 3, 2026, requiring all plants to be new and unopened with pricing delivered to a Dallas address. A second opportunity from DeKalb County, Georgia (ITB 2026-076-ITB) posted June 9, 2026 with bids due July 13, 2026, focuses on reconstruction of the DeKalb Tennis Center and does not directly match the ornamental plant commodity scope. The Los Alamos RFP includes a pre-proposal conference scheduled for May 13, 2026, with written questions due May 21, 2026; vendors must hold a valid nursery dealer license from the New Mexico Department of Agriculture. Recent activity suggests this code sees intermittent solicitation for general plant procurement and horticultural maintenance services rather than specialized fresh-cut ornamental red pepper sourcing.
