UNSPSC 50413513: Organic verona endives

The variety of organic endives known as organic verona endives

UNSPSC 50413513 Organic verona endives (Commodity) does not appear in current state and local procurement activity. The sixteen recent opportunities tagged to this code across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri overwhelmingly solicit fresh produce and food service items for school nutrition programs and state operations—apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, eggs, and other staple fruits and vegetables—but none specifically name or require endives, organic or otherwise. The opportunities reflect broad category tagging at the state and local level rather than commodity-level precision; issuing bodies include school districts (Northside ISD in San Antonio, Early County Schools in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Glynn County Board of Education, Muscogee County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, and others), state purchasing offices (Georgia), and one county public school system (Hillsborough County, Florida), all competing for general produce supply contracts under RFP, RFQ, IFB, and ITB notice types.

The geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (nine opportunities) and Texas (three), with isolated activity in Florida and Missouri. Representative recent opportunities include Bulloch County School District's Invitation for Proposal for locally grown produce within 200 miles (due May 4, 2026); Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid covering 300+ items with delivery June 8, 2026; Northside ISD's RFP for fresh produce (due May 7, 2026) requiring USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable compliance; and Glynn County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce covering 60 line items (due April 14, 2026). Procurement volume and institutional scale are substantial—Douglas County Schools' RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative spans 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One—but no solicitation specifies endives as a required or preferred commodity, making this code poorly matched to current state and local buying patterns for this specific product.
