UNSPSC 50402107: Widgeon brussel sprouts

The variety of brussel sprouts known as widgeon brussel sprouts

UNSPSC 50402107 Widgeon brussel sprouts is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, does not align with actual procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific vegetable variety, but the source contains no recent opportunities seeking widgeon brussel sprouts specifically. Instead, recent postings consistently solicit broad fresh produce procurement—apples, bananas, carrots, potatoes, lettuce, broccoli, tomatoes, and other common institutional vegetables and fruits—across school districts, state criminal justice agencies, and child nutrition programs. The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity scope and the wide-ranging produce solicitations suggests that widgeon brussel sprouts, if procured at all under this code, represent a negligible slice of state and local vegetable purchasing or may be tagged incorrectly in individual opportunities.

School districts dominate the recent issuing bodies, including Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Bartow County Schools and Dougherty County Schools (Georgia), Northside Independent School District (Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), and several others across multiple states. State agencies—the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State of Georgia, and Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts—procure produce for institutional food service and canning operations. The geographic spread is concentrated in the Southeast and South, particularly Georgia, Texas, and Florida, with secondary activity in Wisconsin, Connecticut, and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 for Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Snacks (bids due July 29, 2026, emphasizing local sourcing within 400 miles of Madison with organic preference discounts), Northside Independent School District's RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce delivery to 117 school campuses five days weekly (proposals due May 7, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's multiple IFBs for bulk carrots and white potatoes for canning (bids due June 23, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 Georgia school districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million across both geographic areas (proposals due March 4, 2026). No recent state or local procurement activity specifically names widgeon brussel sprouts or any narrow cultivar; the code shows little relevant recent activity.
