UNSPSC 50412907: Organic salad king chicory

The variety of organic chicory known as organic salad king chicory

UNSPSC 50412907 Organic salad king chicory is a Commodity code covering fresh produce items, specifically specialty lettuces and greens, that state and local governments procure for food service operations, meal programs, and public facility dining. Recent solicitations frame the work as supply and delivery of fresh vegetables meeting food-safety compliance, quality standards, and delivery schedules across parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and state institutions. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code include county parks departments, school districts, state procurement offices, and healthcare coalitions. The scope encompasses produce fulfillment as part of broader food-service contracts rather than standalone specialty-produce purchases.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southeast. Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) on October 8, 2026 for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025), which included diverse food and beverage options as part of concession operations but did not isolate specialty lettuces. Marion Health Care Coalition solicited produce proposals on August 7, 2026 with an August 21, 2026 response date covering fresh fruits and vegetables for the 2026-2027 contract period. The State of Georgia issued a request for bids on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with full scope contained in an attached document. Early County Board of Education posted a line-by-line food bid on May 11, 2026 (due June 8, 2026) for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, encompassing approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits across three schools with July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract term and domestic sourcing preferences. The code shows limited recent activity specifically tagged to organic salad king chicory; opportunities are predominantly broader produce or food-service solicitations where this specialty item would be one line among many commodity offerings.
