UNSPSC 50412205: Organic red beard bunching onions

The variety of organic bunching onions known as organic red beard bunching onions

UNSPSC 50412205 Organic red beard bunching onions (Commodity) represents fresh produce items that state and local governments procure for food service operations across parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and other public institutions. The code captures fresh vegetables sourced through open competitive bidding and negotiated procurement processes, with recent activity showing school districts, county park systems, healthcare coalitions, and state agencies all soliciting produce vendors. Early County Board of Education's June 2026 bid for the National School Lunch Program itemized over 300 food products including vegetables and fruits with domestic-sourcing preferences and whole-grain specifications; the State of Georgia issued a May 2026 solicitation for food supplies and kitchen products; and Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce proposals in August 2026 for the 2026–2027 contract period covering fresh fruits and vegetables with seasonal pricing adjustments. The work involves meeting food safety compliance, HACCP plans, delivery schedules, quality standards, and pricing requirements tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index benchmarks where applicable.

Recent solicitations span Georgia and Florida. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) posted a line-by-line food bid due June 8, 2026, requiring delivery Monday through Friday to three schools with domestic sourcing emphasis and low-sodium, no-added-sugar formulations. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park due March 6, 2025, with a 10-point local-vendor preference for businesses meeting Collier or Lee County residency criteria. Marion Health Care Coalition (Florida) sought produce proposals due August 21, 2026. The State of Georgia's May 2026 solicitation for food supplies and kitchen products remains the broadest recent opportunity but lacks detailed scope posting. School districts and county park and recreation divisions appear to be the primary repeat buyers under this code's recent activity.
