UNSPSC 50412004: Organic chinese broccoli

The variety of organic broccoli known as organic chinese broccoli

UNSPSC 50412004 Organic chinese broccoli (Commodity) covers fresh produce supplied to state and local public agencies, including schools, parks and recreation departments, and specialized procurement coalitions. State and local governments soliciting under this code buy fresh vegetables as components of broader food-service contracts — typically bundled with other produce, proteins, dairy, and non-food kitchen supplies rather than as single-item line purchases. The issuing bodies span school districts, county parks and recreation departments, state procurement offices, and health-care-affiliated procurement coalitions. Contracts emphasize compliance with food-safety regulations, HACCP documentation, domestic sourcing preferences where applicable, and adherence to USDA nutrition standards for child nutrition programs.

Recent activity shows procurement spread across Georgia, Florida, and regional health coalitions. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued a line-by-line bid for food and non-food products supporting the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program due June 8, 2026, naming fresh vegetables among approximately 300 food items with domestic sourcing and low-sodium preference criteria. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) solicited food services for North Collier Regional Park via Invitation to Negotiate due March 6, 2025, requiring diverse food and beverage options including fresh produce across multiple venues. Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce proposals for the 2026-2027 contract period due August 21, 2026, specifying fresh fruits and vegetables with quality and freshness guarantees. The State of Georgia posted a broader food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid due June 22, 2026, with full item scope in the attached solicitation document. School districts dominate recent solicitation volume, typically binding produce to multi-item competitive bids with firm pricing, Buy American compliance, and monthly or quarterly delivery schedules.
