UNSPSC 50404903: Giantleafed mustard

The variety of mustard known as giantleafed mustard

UNSPSC 50404903 Giantleafed mustard is a Commodity code encompassing fresh vegetables supplied to institutional food service operations, though recent state and local solicitations under this code show activity focused primarily on broader fresh produce procurement rather than giantleafed mustard specifically. State and local governments buying under this code procure fresh fruits and vegetables for correctional facilities, state supported living centers, school nutrition programs, senior services, and mental health facilities. Recent work includes standing supply agreements for weekly or bi-weekly produce delivery with quality and freshness guarantees, temperature-controlled logistics, and traceability documentation by farm of origin. Issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health), school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Bartow County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Early County), county governments (Collier County), and specialized procurement entities (Head Start programs, Marion Health Care Coalition). Repeat institutional buyers include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Texas Department of Criminal Justice, both regularly soliciting fresh produce supply contracts for multiple facility locations.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Illinois, with secondary activity in Wisconsin, Florida, and nationwide scope through Head Start organizations. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission requesting consumables including fresh produce for Lufkin State Supported Living Center under IFB HHS0018082 (due October 23, 2026), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice soliciting fresh fruit and vegetables for Palestine and Snyder warehouse locations under RFQ IW267376 and IW267420 (both October 2026 deadlines), the Illinois Department of Corrections seeking fresh produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center under a small-business set-aside RFQ 27426DOCJOLIEB53849 (due September 3, 2026), Madison Metropolitan School District requesting fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Wisconsin under RFB 4163 (due July 29, 2026) with a 5 percent diverse-owned preference, Bartow County Schools requesting local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles under RFP 10-2026-019 (due June 22, 2026), and Dougherty County Board of Education seeking fresh produce sealed bids for 24 school nutrition sites under IFB 016-SNS-2027 (due June 16, 2026). Institutional produce procurement typically emphasizes domestic sourcing preferences, USDA grade compliance, traceability by farm, and F.O.B. Destination pricing with transportation included; school district bids increasingly carry local-sourcing mandates within 400 miles and diversity-ownership scoring preferences.
