UNSPSC 10402008: Dried cut esperance rose

Dried cut bloom of the esperance variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402008 Dried cut esperance rose is a Commodity code that receives minimal state and local solicitation activity. The code nominally describes a specific cut-flower product, but recent state and local opportunities tagged to it do not align with dried floral goods. Instead, the posting history reflects environmental services and arts-and-craft supplies procurement that falls outside the scope of this floriculture-specific code. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the sourcing system or that the code's recent activity does not represent actual demand for dried esperance roses from state and local buyers.

Pinellas County, Florida and Columbus Consolidated Government, Georgia are the only issuing bodies with posted opportunities currently tagged to this code. Pinellas County's RFP 250628RFP (due July 29, 2025) seeks environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services for wetlands and stormwater management sites over a five-year term—work that bears no relationship to cut florals. Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB 26-0014 (due February 25, 2026) procures arts, craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for parks-and-recreation programming, with estimated annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000—also unrelated to dried flowers. The geographic distribution shows activity only in Florida and Georgia, but given the apparent coding errors, these opportunities provide no meaningful signal about actual state and local demand for dried cut esperance roses.
