UNSPSC 10422701: Dried cut cigar calathea

Dried cut bloom of cigar variety of calatheas

UNSPSC 10422701 Dried cut cigar calathea, a Commodity code, shows a mismatch between its nominal scope and the work actually being solicited under it by state and local governments. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not involve dried cut cigar calathea or related horticultural products; instead, they reflect environmental management, native plant installation, and general arts and craft supplies procurement—categories that fall outside the code's intended commodity description. The code shows little relevant recent activity aligned with its stated scope.

Pinellas County, Florida issued an RFP on February 26, 2026 (with a due date of July 29, 2025) for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services, which focuses on invasive and exotic plant removal, native plant installation, wetland management, and regulatory compliance across sites including McMullen Booth Stormwater Pond and Eagle Lake Park. Columbus Consolidated Government (Georgia) issued RFB No. 26-0014 on February 4, 2026 for arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for its Parks and Recreation Department on an as-needed basis, with annual purchasing anticipated between $30,000 and $50,000. Neither opportunity reflects procurement of dried cut cigar calathea or products within that commodity category. The tagging of these solicitations to this code appears to be administrative error or a categorical misclassification by the issuing bodies rather than evidence of active market demand for the commodity itself.
