UNSPSC 50412003: Organic broccoli raab

The variety of organic broccoli known as organic broccoli raab

UNSPSC 50412003 Organic broccoli raab is a Commodity code representing fresh organic leafy green vegetables procured by state and local governments as part of broader food-service contracts. State and local buyers under this code include county parks and recreation divisions, school districts, and health-care coalitions — issuing bodies that source produce through open competitive bidding. The scope reflects institutional food service operations: county concession stands and recreational facilities, school cafeterias supporting National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs, and health-care dietary operations. Recent solicitations show that produce procurement, including organic broccoli raab where specified, occurs as part of mixed food-supply line-item bidding or through dedicated produce-vendor agreements rather than as single-commodity purchases, with vendors required to meet food-safety compliance, delivery schedules, volume commitments, and in school settings, USDA sourcing preferences and nutritional standards.
