UNSPSC 10402401: Dried cut african dawn rose

Dried cut bloom of the african dawn variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402401 Dried cut african dawn rose is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows little activity directly aligned with its nominal scope. The two most recent opportunities tagged to this code—an environmental planting and maintenance services contract from Pinellas County and an arts and craft supplies procurement from Columbus Consolidated Government—do not involve dried cut flowers or floral products. Pinellas County's five-year environmental services RFP focuses on invasive species removal, native plant installation, wetland monitoring, and ecological restoration across stormwater and surface water sites; Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft supplies RFB seeks bulk discount pricing on general hobby and recreational items for parks and recreation programming. Neither solicitation involves the purchase of dried florals or cut flower products as typically understood under the code's nominal definition.

The geographic spread of recent activity shows isolated issuances in Florida and Georgia with no discernible pattern of regular procurement under this code. The Pinellas County opportunity, an RFP posted February 26, 2026, with a response due July 29, 2025 (note the inconsistent dates in the source), structures environmental services as an as-needed contract with SBE participation thresholds and a potential five-year initial term plus extensions. The Columbus Consolidated Government opportunity, an RFB posted February 4, 2026, with responses due February 25, 2026, targets annual spend of $30,000 to $50,000 across multiple vendors on a two-year base with three optional one-year renewals. The mismatch between the code's florist-focused title and the actual work being procured suggests either a cataloging error in the issuing bodies' UNSPSC assignments or minimal state and local demand for dried cut african dawn rose products under organized procurement channels.
