UNSPSC 50404303: Lanro kohlrabi

The variety of kohlrabi known as lanro kohlrabi

UNSPSC 50404303 Lanro kohlrabi is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh produce procurement for institutional food service operations, though the recent state and local solicitations under this code reflect a much broader scope of fresh fruit and vegetable supply across school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, mental health centers, senior services, and state-supported living facilities. State and local buyers soliciting under this code include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin, Bartow County and Bryan County Schools in Georgia, Dougherty County Schools in Georgia, Early County Schools in Georgia), state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health), county and municipal procurement offices (Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida, City of San Antonio Department of Human Services), and special-purpose health coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition). The scope of work encompasses fresh fruits and vegetables procured through IFBs, ITNs, RFPs, and sealed-bid competitions for delivery to institutional kitchens and food service operations, often with specifications for quality, traceability, organic or local sourcing, and compliance with federal food-safety and nutrition-program regulations such as USDA School Lunch Program and Child and Adult Care Food Program requirements.

Recent opportunities show the strongest activity in Texas and Georgia. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumables and food service groceries to state-supported living centers (Lufkin and Mexia facilities, posted August and October 2026) and canteen supplies with response dates in August and late October. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has solicited fresh fruit and vegetable supply to multiple prison food warehouses (Snyder, Palestine, Wynne) and bulk white potatoes and sweet potatoes for canning with deadlines in June and mid-October 2026. Georgia school districts including Bartow County, Bryan County, Dougherty County, and Early County have issued sealed-bid and RFP procurements for local and fresh produce with deadlines ranging from May through June 2026. The Illinois Department of Corrections and Department of Mental Health have posted small-purchase contracts for fresh produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center and Madden Mental Health Center (August 2026). The Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida issued an ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025, noting a date discrepancy in the source). Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin is soliciting weekly fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (due July 29, 2026) with a 400-mile local-sourcing requirement and diversity preferences. Representative solicitations include the Texas HHS Commission IFB HHS0018082 for consumables foods at Lufkin State Supported Living Center (due October 23, 2026), the Texas TDCJ RFP for fresh fruit and vegetables to Palestine (due October 19, 2026), the Dougherty County Board of Education sealed-bid for fresh produce across 24 school nutrition sites (due June 16, 2026), and the Bartow County School System RFP for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (due June 22, 2026).
