UNSPSC 50404804: Chanterelle mushrooms

The variety of mushrooms known as chanterelle mushrooms

UNSPSC 50404804 Chanterelle mushrooms, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's abstract scope—specialty culinary mushrooms—does not align with the actual buying patterns documented in the recent-opportunities block, which reflects institutional food service procurement focused on bulk fresh produce, conventional vegetables, fruits, and commodity proteins for school nutrition programs, child care facilities, correctional institutions, and senior services. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with Georgia and Texas accounting for the overwhelming majority of recent solicitations, followed by activity in Florida, Connecticut, Missouri, and select other states. Representative recent opportunities include the Bartow County School System (RFP 10-2026-019, response deadline June 22, 2026) seeking local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles; the Glynn County Board of Education (IFB 27-02, bids due April 14, 2026) requesting approximately 60 fresh produce line items including apples, carrots, and specialty items but not mushrooms of any variety; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (multiple IFBs in June 2026) procuring white potatoes, sweet potatoes, and carrots for canning; and Northside Independent School District in San Antonio (RFP 2026-048, deadline May 7, 2026) seeking USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable-compliant produce for five-day weekly delivery.

The recent-opportunities block shows no documented demand for chanterelle mushrooms or specialty cultivated mushrooms under this code in state and local procurement during the past six months. Institutional buyers prioritize volume, price, consistency, and USDA compliance over specialty or foraged varieties. If chanterelle mushroom producers operate in this market, they would likely compete under broader fresh-produce or specialty-food commodity codes rather than this narrow classification. The code appears inactive at the state and local level based on available solicitation data and warrants a skip pending evidence of actual institutional demand.
