UNSPSC 50414101: Organic curly kale

The variety of organic kale known as organic curly kale

UNSPSC 50414101 Organic curly kale is a Commodity code that covers fresh produce sourced for state and local institutional food service operations — school meals, county parks and recreation facilities, healthcare facilities, and state agencies. State and local buyers procure organic kale as part of broader fresh-produce contracts that emphasize quality, food-safety compliance, and delivery scheduling; the code appears most often within larger food-service and supply solicitations rather than as a standalone item. County and municipal park authorities, school districts, healthcare coalitions, and state procurement offices all issue solicitations that include or reference organic vegetables like kale as part of diversified fresh-produce offerings meeting operational and nutritional needs.

Recent activity shows solicitations from Collier County Board of County Commissioners (a parks food-service ITN posted October 8, 2026 with a March 6, 2025 due date), Marion Health Care Coalition (produce proposals due August 21, 2026), the State of Georgia (food and kitchen products bid due June 22, 2026), and Early County Board of Education (FY27 food bid due June 8, 2026). The Early County solicitation explicitly emphasizes domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, low-sodium formulations, and products without added sugars or artificial additives across 300+ food items, suggesting that state and local buyers are increasingly selective about produce quality and sourcing practices. Geographic activity spans Georgia and Florida, with school districts and healthcare providers showing particular procurement momentum in the first half of 2026.
