UNSPSC 50412603: Organic autumn giant 3 cauliflowers

The variety of organic cauliflower known as organic autumn giant 3 cauliflowers

UNSPSC 50412603 Organic autumn giant 3 cauliflowers is a Commodity code that captures fresh produce items state and local governments procure for food service operations — primarily school nutrition programs, county parks concessions, and healthcare facility food service. The code's nominal specificity (organic, seasonal cauliflower varieties) does not align with the actual scope of recent solicitations, which reflect broad fresh-produce procurement across vegetables and fruits. State and local issuing bodies acquiring under or near this code include school districts (Early County Board of Education), county governments (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), state agencies (State of Georgia), and healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition). School districts dominate the recent activity, procuring vegetables and fruits as line-item components of larger National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program food-service contracts with firm pricing, domestic-sourcing preferences, and USDA-compliant specifications for whole-grain and low-sodium formulations.

Recent solicitations appear across Georgia and Florida, with Early County Schools (Georgia) issuing an IFB for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits for delivery through June 30, 2027 with bids due June 8, 2026; the State of Georgia posting a food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid due June 22, 2026; Collier County (Florida) issuing an Invitation to Negotiate for park concession food services with a response date of March 6, 2025; and Marion Health Care Coalition posting a produce-vendor RFQ due August 21, 2026. School districts emphasize Buy American compliance, HACCP food-safety plans, general liability insurance, E-Verify enrollment, and allow piggybacking by other districts on identical bid terms. County and healthcare procurements typically require vendor quality certifications, delivery timelines, and seasonal pricing adjustments. The code shows measurable recent activity but with substantial overlap into broader produce and food-service categories rather than the specific cauliflower commodity; vendors pursuing this code should track school-lunch RFBs and multi-item produce bids rather than expect cauliflower-specific line-item solicitations.
