UNSPSC 50404820: White trumpet mushrooms

The variety of mushrooms known as white trumpet mushrooms

UNSPSC 50404820 White trumpet mushrooms is a Commodity code that covers fresh mushroom supply to state and local institutional food service operations, though recent solicitations tagged under this code focus predominantly on broad fresh produce procurement rather than mushrooms specifically. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts and state institutional agencies (departments of criminal justice, child nutrition programs) that source fresh vegetables and fruits for student meals, senior nutrition programs, and correctional facility food service. The issuing bodies span school districts across Georgia, Texas, Florida, Missouri, and Connecticut; state departments in Texas and Georgia; county boards of education; and Head Start child care agencies. School nutrition programs dominate the recent activity, with districts sourcing produce weekly or in bulk quantities for the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program.

Recent representative opportunities include the Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (response due July 29, 2026) seeking approximately 5,900 servings weekly for elementary students with a 400-mile sourcing radius and Wisconsin supplier diversity preference; the Northside Independent School District (San Antonio) RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce delivery to 117 campuses five days weekly (response due May 7, 2026); the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB IW253121 for sweet potatoes for canning (due June 23, 2026); and the Bartow County School System RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (response due June 22, 2026). Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia (Bartow, Bryan, Bulloch, Dougherty, Douglas, Early, Glynn, Henry, Liberty, and Muscogee County school systems) and Texas (TDCJ, Northside ISD, McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, Hillsborough County in Florida), with additional activity in Missouri, Connecticut, and scattered Georgia state procurement. Most school district solicitations weight cost at 30–50 percent of evaluation, emphasize USDA Buy American compliance and HACCP certification, require firm pricing for 12 months with optional renewal periods, and prefer local or domestic sourcing when quality and cost align.
