UNSPSC 50413000: Organic chinese cabbages

The variety of organic cabbages known as organic chinese cabbages

UNSPSC 50413000 Organic chinese cabbages is a Class code that names a single produce line item, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it describe broad fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and farm-to-school initiatives rather than organic cabbage specifically. The actual buying activity spans fresh fruits, vegetables, eggs, and prepared produce in bulk quantities for child nutrition reimbursable meal programs, with vendors supplying weekly or twice-weekly deliveries to multiple school sites, central kitchens, and district warehouses. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, including Northside Independent School District (San Antonio), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Bulloch County Schools (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County Schools (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Georgia), Glynn County Schools (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), and Austin Independent School District (Texas). The Douglas County School System and Early County Board of Education in Georgia also appear in the sample. A state-level procurement by Georgia for fresh produce and kitchen products also tagged under the code, though the scope documents were not publicly posted.

The geographic concentration is strongest in Georgia and Texas, where multiple school districts issued fresh produce solicitations in March through May 2026. Representative opportunities include Northside Independent School District (San Antonio) issuing RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce delivery five days per week with a response deadline of May 7, 2026; Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issuing an IFB for food vendors with 300+ line items due June 8, 2026; Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa) issuing RFP 26039RFPDST for specialty fruits and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with a March 11, 2026 deadline; and the Douglas County School System issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Vendors must comply with Buy American provisions, HACCP certification, insurance requirements, and in many cases prioritize domestic or regional sourcing; school districts frequently require firm pricing for 12-month terms with price adjustments permitted only after baseline periods and supported by USDA market reports.
