UNSPSC 50414516: Organic lamb’s lettuces

The variety of organic lettuce known as organic lamb's lettuces

UNSPSC 50414516 Organic lamb's lettuces, a Commodity code, does not see meaningful recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code involve fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, institutional food service, and child nutrition initiatives — categories encompassing conventional produce (apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, lettuce varieties, tomatoes, peppers, eggs) rather than organic specialty lettuces. While several solicitations name generic "lettuce" or "leafy greens" line items within broader produce bids, none explicitly call for organic lamb's lettuce or reference organic certification requirements.

Issuing bodies include school districts (Early County Board of Education in Georgia, Northside Independent School District in Texas, Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, Bulloch County School District in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Glynn County Board of Education in Georgia, McAllen Independent School District in Texas, Austin Independent School District in Texas, Douglas County School System in Georgia) and state agencies (State of Georgia). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with activity also in Florida and Missouri. Representative solicitations include the Early County Board of Education's RFP for food vendors (due June 8, 2026), Northside Independent School District's RFP for fresh produce for child nutrition (due May 7, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts (due March 4, 2026, with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million across two geographic areas). The code shows no distinct demand signal for organic specialty lettuces; vendors pursuing this commodity should treat state and local school nutrition procurement as a secondary channel and focus activity elsewhere.
