UNSPSC 50403809: Solent wight garlic

The variety of garlic known as solent wight garlic

UNSPSC 50403809 Solvent wight garlic, a Commodity code, represents fresh produce procurement by state and local governments for institutional food service — specifically garlic and fresh vegetables for dietary operations, kitchen and canteen supplies, and school meal programs. The code encompasses individual produce items and integrated fresh-produce supply contracts across multiple facility types including state-supported living centers, correctional institutions, mental health facilities, school nutrition programs, and senior services.

State and local governments soliciting under this code span Texas state agencies (Health and Human Services Commission, Department of Criminal Justice), Illinois state departments (Corrections, Mental Health), school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Dougherty County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Bryan County Schools, Early County Board of Education), county governments (Collier County, Marion County), and specialized entities such as Head Start programs and senior services. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Texas Health and Human Services Commission emerge as repeat buyers, with multiple concurrent solicitations for fresh produce and food service supplies. Recent solicitations cluster in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Florida. Representative opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (consumables and prepared foods for Lufkin State Supported Living Center, due October 23, 2026) and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's fresh fruit and vegetable solicitations for food warehouse distribution (IW267376 for Palestine, IW267420 for Snyder, IW267411 for Wynne, all due mid-October 2026). The Madison Metropolitan School District issued RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison with a 5% preference for Wisconsin-certified diverse-owned vendors, due July 29, 2026, requiring approximately 5,900 servings weekly under the USDA Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program. Dougherty County Board of Education's sealed-bid procurement for fresh produce across 24 school nutrition sites (due June 16, 2026) and Bartow County School System's local produce RFP (due June 22, 2026, with locational sourcing within 400 miles) reflect school-district activity. Collier County's ITN for North Collier Regional Park food services (due March 6, 2025, with local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points) and the Illinois Department of Corrections' RFQ for fresh produce at Joliet Treatment Center (due September 3, 2026, small-business set-aside) demonstrate county and state correctional facility demand. Pricing is typically F.O.B. Destination with transportation included; delivery frequency ranges from weekly to bi-weekly; and contract terms commonly run 12 months with optional renewals.
