UNSPSC 50402102: Falstaff brussel sprouts

The variety of brussel sprouts known as falstaff brussel sprouts

UNSPSC 50402102 Falstaff brussel sprouts is a Commodity code that does not align with current state and local procurement activity. The code nominally refers to a specific cultivar of brussels sprouts, but the recent opportunities in the dataset tag produce procurement under this code while actually soliciting mixed fresh vegetables, prepared foods, and food service supplies—not brussels sprouts specifically. The issuing bodies span state health and human services agencies, state departments of criminal justice, school districts, and county parks departments across Texas, Illinois, and Georgia, soliciting through IFB, RFP, RFQ, and ITN notices. The scope of work being purchased includes fresh produce (carrots, potatoes, onions, lettuce, tomatoes, apples, bananas, and other mixed vegetables), prepared foods (french fries, chicken wings, sauces), and food service disposables (containers, napkins, foil, hairnets, trays). State and local procurement offices appear to use this code as a catch-all for institutional food procurement rather than as a specific commodity identifier.

Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice are the most frequent issuing bodies, with multiple solicitations posted in August and September 2026 for cafeteria and warehouse food supply. School districts in Georgia (Bryan County, Dougherty County, Early County, Bartow County) and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan) have solicited fresh produce and prepared foods under similar codes during May through August 2026. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHS Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (bids due October 23, 2026, covering 22 line items of prepared and packaged foods), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's multiple IFBs for fresh fruits and vegetables to prison food warehouses in Snyder, Wynne, and Palestine (responses due October 14 and 19, 2026), and the Dougherty County Board of Education's sealed-bid RFQ for fresh produce to 24 school sites (bids due June 16, 2026, covering 40 produce line items). Collier County, Florida's Invitation to Negotiate for park concession food services (proposals due March 6, 2025) and the Illinois Department of Corrections' sealed-bid RFQ for bi-weekly produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center (quotes due September 3, 2026) round out the mix. The geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas, followed by Georgia and Illinois, with activity also in Florida and Wisconsin.
