UNSPSC 50403245: Pegasus corn

The variety of corn known as pegasus corn

UNSPSC 50403245 Pegasus corn, a Commodity code, does not align with the work state and local governments are actually buying under the recent opportunities posted in this category. The recent solicitations tagged to this code overwhelmingly represent fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, child care food service, and institutional feeding operations—apples, bananas, carrots, tomatoes, lettuce, potatoes, and mixed fresh fruits and vegetables—rather than Pegasus corn specifically. School districts and state agencies are the primary issuing bodies, conducting sealed bid and RFP processes for weekly or regular produce delivery to multiple school sites, with contracts typically running one year with renewal options. The geographic spread of recent activity spans Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, and Missouri, with particularly heavy concentration in Georgia school districts and Texas state agencies.

Representative recent opportunities include the Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) RFB 4163 seeking fresh fruit and vegetable snacks for approximately 5,900 weekly servings through November 2026, with a 5 percent preference for Wisconsin Supplier Diversity Program–certified vendors and organic produce at $0.20 per pound pricing advantage; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB IW253099 for bulk white potatoes due June 23, 2026, supplied to institutional food service operations statewide; and the Bartow County School System (Georgia) RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, proposals due June 22, 2026, evaluated on cost (30 points), seasonal variety (25 points), delivery proficiency (20 points), quality (15 points), and customer support (10 points). The Northside Independent School District (Texas) RFP 2026-048 seeks fresh produce for 127 campuses with USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable compliance, deliveries five days per week during school year, pricing based on USDA terminal market standards with monthly adjustment notices, and proposals due May 7, 2026. No recent solicitations identified Pegasus corn as a line item or procurement target; the code shows limited alignment with current state and local buying patterns in this dataset.
