UNSPSC 50411814: Organic cannellini beans

The variety of organic beans known as organic cannellini beans

UNSPSC 50411814 Organic cannellini beans is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect a much broader procurement pattern: school districts, state agencies, and county governments are buying fresh produce, eggs, and groceries for child nutrition and school food service on a line-item basis—not specifically organic cannellini beans. The solicitations span fresh fruits, vegetables, prepared produce, and staple proteins delivered weekly or twice weekly to school sites, often with firm pricing, HACCP compliance, Buy American preferences, and renewal options. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Northside in San Antonio, Austin, McAllen, and Savannah-Chatham in Georgia), county school systems (Bulloch, Glynn, Liberty, Muscogee, and Douglas County in Georgia; Hillsborough in Florida; Rockwood in Missouri), and state purchasing offices (Georgia Department of Education). School nutrition procurement dominates the visible activity, with districts serving 6,900 to 83,000 students. Vendors must deliver to multiple school sites Monday through Friday between 6:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., maintain insurance and food-safety certifications including HACCP and GAP audit certificates, comply with Buy American provisions and USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable standards, and accept price adjustments pegged to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index data. No incumbent vendors or set-aside designations appear across the recent opportunities.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Missouri and Florida. Representative solicitations include the Early County Board of Education (Commodity code 50411814 tag) issuing an RFP for line-by-line food bids with a June 8, 2026 response date spanning meats, poultry, dairy, produce, condiments, and paper supplies for child nutrition programs; Northside Independent School District in San Antonio issuing RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce delivery (May 7, 2026 deadline) to 127 school campuses with USDA Buy American compliance and monthly price adjustments; Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa soliciting cost-plus fixed-fee fresh fruit and vegetable contracts for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (March 11, 2026 deadline, estimated $600,000 annual budget); and the Douglas County School System (Georgia) issuing a cooperative purchasing RFP for produce and eggs across 30 school districts (March 4, 2026 deadline) with estimated spending of $4.4 million for one geographic area. Austin Independent School District and Bulloch County School District each issued produce RFPs emphasizing Good Food Purchasing Program commitments and local/farm-to-school sourcing within 200 miles. Bidders typically submit sealed proposals via e-procurement portals or direct mail, with public bid openings 30–60 days before contract start dates (usually July 1).
