UNSPSC 10402404: Dried cut black beauty rose

Dried cut bloom of the black beauty variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402404 Dried cut black beauty rose is a Commodity code that sees minimal state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code diverge significantly from dried floral products; instead, they reflect environmental services and general arts and craft supplies procurement rather than the horticultural commodity the code nominally describes. Pinellas County's environmental planting and monitoring contract solicitation focuses on invasive plant removal, native plant installation, wetland restoration, and ecological site maintenance across stormwater ponds and surface water conveyances — work requiring State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A certifications. Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft supplies bid seeks discount-rate vendor partnerships for parks and recreation programming, spanning after-school programs, community schools, senior services, and special populations. Neither solicitation involves procurement of dried cut roses or similar cut-flower products for state and local use.

The issuing bodies reflect typical county and municipal procurement structures — a county environmental management office and a city parks department — but the code shows no pattern of repeat activity or concentrated buying under its stated scope. Geographic activity appears limited to Florida and Georgia based on the recent opportunities. Without evidence of sustained procurement of dried cut black beauty roses or related dried floral commodities in state and local markets, this code presents limited business development opportunity. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the environmental and recreational supplies work actually posted against it suggests either category misclassification by issuing offices or minimal real demand for dried floral products through state and local procurement channels.
