UNSPSC 50404306: White vienna kohlrabi

The variety of kohlrabi known as white vienna kohlrabi

UNSPSC 50404306 White Vienna Kohlrabi is a Commodity code that describes a specific fresh produce item — white kohlrabi — but state and local procurement activity under this code is negligible. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly requesting white vienna kohlrabi. School districts, state agencies, and other public bodies procuring fresh produce typically issue broad RFPs and IFBs covering dozens of produce line items in a single contract rather than single-commodity procurements; kohlrabi appears rarely in the detailed specification sheets that accompany these requests. When kohlrabi does appear, it is nested within comprehensive produce bids that include apples, carrots, broccoli, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and dozens of other items, and responding vendors rarely specialize in a single vegetable. The code's nominal specificity does not reflect the consolidated, multi-item nature of school nutrition and institutional food service purchasing.

State and local procurement under this code remains concentrated among school districts and state agencies in Georgia and Texas, which have issued the highest volume of fresh produce solicitations in the past four months. Representative recent activity includes the Dougherty County Board of Education (RFP 016-SNS-2027, bids due June 16, 2026) requesting sealed bids for 40 fresh produce line items delivered to 24 school nutrition sites, and the Bartow County School System (RFP 10-2026-019, proposals due June 22, 2026) seeking local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles; neither specifies kohlrabi as a required item. Glynn County Schools (IFB 27-02, sealed bids due April 14, 2026), Liberty County Schools (IFB, sealed bids due April 29, 2026), and Bryan County Schools (sealed bids due May 27, 2026) have all issued produce contracts covering 60 to 72 produce line items with no mention of kohlrabi. Pursue this code only if your firm can compete as a component supplier within large consolidated school nutrition contracts; direct procurement of white vienna kohlrabi alone is not a realistic opportunity in state and local purchasing today.
