UNSPSC 50412705: Organic giant pink celery

The variety of organic celery known as organic giant pink celery

UNSPSC 50412705 Organic giant pink celery, a Commodity code, does not map to meaningful state and local procurement activity based on recent posted opportunities. The code's nominal scope describes a single specialized produce item, yet the recent solicitations under this code span broad grocery, fresh produce, and child nutrition procurement across multiple states and issuing bodies — school districts, county boards of education, and state purchasing offices sourcing hundreds of produce line items, dairy, proteins, grains, condiments, and non-food supplies for school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations. No recent opportunity specifically solicited organic giant pink celery or referenced celery as a primary or distinguishing line item.

The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity name and the actual scope of work being procured suggests either miscoding in the source data or that this code is used as a catch-all family or category-level tag for produce procurement despite its eight-digit commodity designation. School districts in Georgia (Bulloch County, Liberty County, Glynn County, Savannah-Chatham County), Texas (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), along with the State of Georgia and Douglas County School System cooperative, have posted RFPs, IFBs, and RFQs for fresh produce contracts with response dates between March and June 2026 — but these procurements are substantially broader than a single celery variety. If pursuing opportunities under this code, verify the actual line-item scope in each IFB or RFP attachment, as the code designation does not reliably describe what is being bought.
