UNSPSC 50411916: Organic formanova beets

The variety of organic beets known as organic formanova beets

UNSPSC 50411916 Organic formanova beets, a Commodity code, covers the procurement of fresh produce — specifically beets and other fresh fruits and vegetables — for food service operations across state and local jurisdictions. The recent solicitations under this code show state and local governments buying produce as part of broader food-service vendor contracts for parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and state institutional operations. Work involves supply and delivery of fresh vegetables meeting quality standards, food-safety compliance, and often domestic-sourcing preferences; vendors must maintain inventory freshness guarantees, meet delivery schedules and volume requirements, and comply with applicable health regulations.

The issuing bodies include county park and recreation departments (Collier County), school districts (Early County Board of Education), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia). Recent activity is concentrated in the Southeast, with documented opportunities from Florida, Georgia, and other states. Representative recent solicitations include Collier County Board of County Commissioners' ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park (posted October 8, 2026, due March 6, 2025), Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid for school lunch and breakfast programs (posted May 11, 2026, due June 8, 2026), Marion Health Care Coalition's produce-vendor RFP for the 2026-2027 contract period (posted August 7, 2026, due August 21, 2026), and the State of Georgia's bid for food supplies and kitchen products (posted May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026). School districts place particular emphasis on domestic sourcing, whole-grain and low-sodium formulations, and USDA compliance; local-vendor preferences and small-business set-asides (woman- and minority-business certifications) appear regularly in evaluation criteria.
