UNSPSC 50411919: Organic monogram beets

The variety of organic beets known as organic monogram beets

UNSPSC 50411919 Organic monogram beets, a Commodity code, encompasses fresh produce procurement by state and local government food-service operations, though recent solicitations show the code is tagged against broader produce and food-service buys that extend well beyond the nominal category. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county governments (parks and recreation divisions), school districts, health-care coalitions, and state procurement offices. The representative work involves supplying fresh fruits and vegetables to multiple operational contexts—concession facilities at regional parks, school lunch and breakfast programs, and health-care provider networks. Food vendors must meet quality standards, delivery schedules, volume requirements, food-safety compliance (including HACCP plans where applicable), and pricing that reflects seasonal availability. School districts emphasize domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives, with firm pricing for contract periods and escalation adjustments tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index benchmarks.

Recent activity spans at least three states: Florida (Collier County Board of County Commissioners soliciting food services for North Collier Regional Park via Invitation to Negotiate, proposals due March 6, 2025), Georgia (the State of Georgia requesting bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date; Early County Board of Education requesting line-by-line food bids due June 8, 2026 for the National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs), and an unspecified state or region (Marion Health Care Coalition seeking produce proposals due August 21, 2026). School districts represent the most active buyer segment, with Early County Schools in Georgia exemplifying the scale—the district's bid covers 300+ food items and 60 non-food and paper supplies across three schools, with contract term July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 and renewal options. County parks and recreation divisions and health-care coalitions round out the issuing-body mix. Vendors bidding under this code should expect cooperative purchasing frameworks (Early County Schools allows piggybacking by other school districts on identical terms), Buy American compliance requirements, general liability insurance ($500,000 to $1,000,000 per occurrence), E-Verify enrollment, and evaluation criteria that may weight local-vendor preference and certified minority or woman business enterprise status.
