UNSPSC 50411910: Organic cylindra beets

The variety of organic beets known as organic cylindra beets

UNSPSC 50411910 Organic cylindra beets is a Commodity code that covers fresh beet sourcing for state and local food service operations, including school meal programs, parks and recreation concessions, healthcare facility dining, and institutional food services. Recent state and local opportunities show that organic cylindra beets are solicited as line items within broader produce and food-supply agreements rather than as standalone commodity purchases. State and local buyers procure these items through school districts (Early County Board of Education), county parks departments (Collier County), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state purchasing offices (State of Georgia) conducting consolidated food and kitchen-product bids. School districts represent a substantial issuing-body segment, with emphasis on whole-grain and whole-food options, domestic sourcing, and products without artificial additives; bids typically include produce items alongside proteins, dairy, and non-food supplies as part of National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program support.

Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast, with documented recent solicitations from Georgia (State of Georgia food supplies bid, May 2026), Florida (Collier County ITN for park food services, October 2026), and Maryland (Marion Health Care Coalition produce proposals, August 2026). Representative recent opportunities include Early County Board of Education's FY27 Food Bid (line-by-line IFB, response due June 8, 2026) covering 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits for three schools under a July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 contract, and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' North Collier Regional Park Food Services ITN (response due March 6, 2025) seeking diverse food and beverage options for water park and athletic facility concessions. The State of Georgia's consolidated food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid (due June 22, 2026) and MHCC's produce vendor solicitation (due August 21, 2026) demonstrate institutional and healthcare procurement patterns. Evaluation criteria across these opportunities prioritize compliance with food-safety regulations, domestic sourcing preferences, product freshness, and competitive pricing; school districts and parks departments apply local-vendor preferences and set-asides for certified woman- and minority-owned businesses where applicable.
