UNSPSC 50414601: Organic blanca malanga

The variety of organic malanga known as organic blanca malanga

UNSPSC 50414601 Organic blanca malanga, a Commodity code, covers fresh produce — specifically organic root vegetables and similar items — that state and local governments procure for food service operations across parks, health care facilities, schools, and state agencies. The scope encompasses produce sourcing for institutional kitchens, cafeterias, and concession operations where fresh fruits and vegetables are procured on contract terms specifying quality standards, delivery schedules, volume commitments, and food-safety compliance. Issuing bodies include county parks and recreation divisions, school boards managing National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations, state purchasing offices, and regional health care coalitions. School districts appear as the most frequent recent buyers, bidding produce contracts on a line-item basis as part of larger food-service procurements that bundle meats, dairy, grains, and supplies.

Recent activity spans Florida, Georgia, and the broader Southeast. Collier County Board of County Commissioners Procurement Services Division issued an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025), which includes produce and beverage provision across concession and park venues. Marion Health Care Coalition (MHCC) solicited produce proposals with a due date of August 21, 2026. Early County Board of Education in Georgia requested line-by-line bids for approximately 300 food items including vegetables and fruits supporting school meal programs, with bids due June 8, 2026 and emphasis on domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and products without added sugars or artificial additives. The State of Georgia issued a broader food, supplies, and kitchen-products bid (due June 22, 2026) that likely included produce components. A local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points applied to the Collier County ITN for vendors meeting specified county residency and business-location criteria.
