UNSPSC 50413016: Organic yau choy sum

The variety of organic chinese cabbage known as organic yau choy sum

UNSPSC 50413016 Organic yau choy sum is a Commodity-tier code tracking produce procurement, yet the recent state and local solicitation activity shows no demand for organic yau choy sum specifically. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code reflect broad fresh-produce purchasing for school nutrition programs, state food service operations, and farm-to-school initiatives. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix—Early County Board of Education, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), and Austin Independent School District (Texas)—alongside state procurement offices in Georgia and Missouri, and a cooperative purchasing vehicle (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts). The work being solicited spans staple produce items including apples, bananas, berries, carrots, broccoli, lettuce, peppers, tomatoes, onions, potatoes, citrus fruits, and eggs, with emphasis on USDA-compliant delivery, domestic sourcing, HACCP certification, temperature-controlled logistics, and weekly or twice-weekly scheduled service to multiple school sites. Specialty produce such as pre-cut vegetables and fruit cups appears in some solicitations, along with strong preference signaling for local and regional sourcing where cost and quality align.

Procurement activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include Early County Board of Education's line-item food bid (RFP, due June 8, 2026) seeking 300+ food items including produce, meats, dairy, and grains for July 2026–June 2027 delivery; Northside Independent School District's fresh-produce RFP (RFP 2026-048, due May 7, 2026) for USDA Child Nutrition–compliant items delivered to 127 campuses with pricing evaluated at 35 percent weight; Hillsborough County Public Schools' Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program RFP (26039RFQDST, due March 11, 2026) for specialty produce delivery to 18 elementary schools under USDA FFVP, estimated annual budget $600,000; the Douglas County School System's cooperative RFP (SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026) serving 30 districts across Georgia with estimated spend of $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two); and the Glynn County Board of Education IFB (IFB 27-02, due April 14, 2026) for approximately 60 produce line items delivered to 16 schools. These solicitations emphasize Buy American provisions, firm or indexed pricing structures, HACCP compliance and traceability, general liability insurance thresholds ranging from $500,000 to $2 million, and multi-year renewal options. The code's designation does not align with actual procurement demand—vendors should monitor school nutrition and institutional food-service RFPs and IFBs rather than narrow searches to organic or Asian specialty produce.
