UNSPSC 50406325: Waltham butternut squash

The variety of summer squashes and summer pumpkins known as waltham butternut squash

UNSPSC 50406325 Waltham butternut squash (Commodity) represents a narrow, produce-specific line item within the broader fresh vegetable procurement activities of state and local institutional food service — primarily corrections facilities, mental health centers, state supported living centers, school districts, and senior services divisions. Recent opportunities solicited under or closely aligned with this code span institutional food service contracts where butternut squash and related winter squash varieties appear as line items within broader fresh produce or canteen food bids, though the source opportunities name squash primarily within wider vegetable assortments rather than as discrete single-item procurements.

Issuing bodies active in this space include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), soliciting fresh fruits and vegetables for food warehouse supply across multiple facilities; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, procuring canteen and food service groceries for state supported living centers; the Illinois Department of Corrections, requesting fresh produce for treatment centers; and school nutrition programs in Georgia (Bartow County Schools, Dougherty County Board of Education, Bryan County Schools, Early County Board of Education) and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District). TDCJ has issued multiple recent RFQs for fresh fruit and vegetable procurement in September and October 2026. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Texas and Georgia, with secondary activity in Illinois and Wisconsin. The source contains no recent opportunities soliciting butternut squash as a standalone or primary commodity — the code appears embedded within institutional fresh produce aggregated bids rather than as a targeted procurement line, limiting near-term pursuit visibility under this specific code.
