UNSPSC 50402715: Tall utah triumph celery

The variety of celery known as tall utah triumph celery

UNSPSC 50402715 Tall utah triumph celery, a Commodity code, covers fresh produce supply contracts that state and local governments are currently procuring for institutional food service operations, including kitchen consumables, frozen and fresh vegetables, and cafeteria provisioning. Recent solicitations show that this code captures fresh vegetable sourcing across a wide range of institutional buyers—state departments, school districts, county boards of education, criminal justice facilities, senior services programs, and mental health centers—all purchasing celery and other produce as line items within larger fresh-produce and food-service contracts.

The geographic spread of recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Illinois, with repeat buyers including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and multiple Georgia school nutrition programs. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 for consumable foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (response due October 23, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's RFP IW267376 for fresh fruit and vegetable supply to Palestine, Texas (response due October 19, 2026), and the Dougherty County Board of Education's sealed-bid procurement for fresh produce across 24 school nutrition sites (response due June 16, 2026). Many solicitations structure produce as part of larger food-service contracts with multiple line items rather than as standalone celery-only buys, requiring vendors to bid competitively on unit pricing, comply with USDA grade and quality standards, manage F.O.B. Destination delivery to multiple sites, and maintain detailed documentation of product traceability and expiration dates. Set-asides and preferences vary by jurisdiction—some include small-business set-asides, diversity certifications, and local-sourcing preferences—and contracts typically run 12 months with optional renewal periods.
