UNSPSC 50413710: Organic spanish morado garlic

The variety of organic garlic known as organic spanish morado garlic

UNSPSC 50413710 Organic Spanish morado garlic, a Commodity code, describes specialty produce items sourced for institutional food service — in this case, fresh vegetables and fruits procured by school districts and state agencies to support child nutrition and farm-to-school programs. Recent state and local solicitations under this code span school nutrition contracting, with district purchasing departments managing competitive RFPs and IFBs for fresh produce delivery to cafeterias and meal programs serving elementary through high school populations.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, including large urban systems (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Austin ISD, and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools) and mid-sized rural and suburban districts (Early County Schools, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Glynn County, and McAllen ISD in Texas). State purchasing offices appear less frequently but remain active—the State of Georgia has posted multiple RFPs and IFBs for fresh produce procurement to support state operations, while county-level cooperative purchasing vehicles (the GEC Buying Cooperative through Douglas County School System) aggregate demand across multiple districts. Georgia and Texas are the dominant geographic centers, with North Carolina (Rockwood R-VI in St. Louis County, Missouri) and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools) representing secondary activity. Representative recent opportunities include Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food bid (RFP, due June 8, 2026) for approximately 300 food items plus non-food supplies to support the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, requiring domestic sourcing preference and whole-grain specifications; Northside ISD's RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce (due May 7, 2026) with evaluation weighted 35 percent to purchase price and 25 percent to extent of goods meeting district needs, requiring HACCP certification and Texas-grown produce prioritization through a "Harvest of the Month" program; and the GEC Buying Cooperative RFP through Douglas County (due March 4, 2026) aggregating approximately $5.5 million in estimated annual spending across 30 school districts in two Georgia regions, with cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing tied to USDA Atlanta Terminal Market and Urner Barry reporting benchmarks.
