UNSPSC 50316304: Organic sutton rhubarb

The variety of organic rhubarb known as organic sutton rhubarb

UNSPSC 50316304 Organic sutton rhubarb is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities under this designation show no procurement activity for organic rhubarb or rhubarb products of any kind. Instead, the tagged solicitations document a concentrated wave of school nutrition fresh produce contracts across multiple school districts and state procurement offices, primarily in Georgia and Texas, covering bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, citrus fruits, and other commodity produce items distributed through National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable grant-funded initiatives. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement signals either a categorical misclassification in the state and local procurement systems or that organic sutton rhubarb is not a current buying priority under this UNSPSC designation.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent activity concentrated in Georgia (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County Schools, Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Glynn County Board of Education, and Douglas County School System) and Texas (McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District), alongside a single State of Georgia procurement. Opportunities are tagged as RFB, RFP, IFB, and ITB notices with response dates between March and July 2026, emphasizing Buy American compliance, HACCP documentation, GAP certification, domestic sourcing preferences, and multi-vendor award structures. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas due July 29, 2026, with an estimated annual contract value of $78,000, and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two.
