UNSPSC 50412706: Organic giant red celery

The variety of organic celery known as organic giant red celery

UNSPSC 50412706 Organic giant red celery is a Commodity code representing fresh produce items, specifically organic celery, that state and local governments procure for food service operations across parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and institutional dining programs. Recent solicitations show the code encompasses broader fresh-produce procurement—fruits, vegetables, and related items—delivered to support school meal programs, park concessions, healthcare facility operations, and state institutional food services. Issuing bodies include county governments (Collier County Parks and Recreation), independent school districts (Early County Board of Education), state agencies (State of Georgia), and healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition). The work involves vendor qualification, product-freshness guarantees, delivery logistics, compliance with food-safety and health regulations, temperature control for perishables, and adherence to domestic-sourcing and nutritional preferences where specified.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, and states represented in the Marion Health Care Coalition network. The Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) posted October 8, 2026 (due March 6, 2025) for food-service concessions at North Collier Regional Park, including fresh-produce components for seasonal athletic events and community dining. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) covering approximately 300+ food items including fresh vegetables and fruits for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program across three schools, with emphasis on domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and products without added sugars or artificial additives. The State of Georgia released a food, supplies, and other kitchen products bid on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026), with full scope details in the attached solicitation document. Marion Health Care Coalition solicited fresh-produce vendors on August 7, 2026 (due August 21, 2026) for the 2026-2027 contract period with delivery and quality-standard requirements.
