UNSPSC 50414602: Organic coco malanga

The variety of organic malanga known as organic coco malanga

UNSPSC 50414602 Organic coco malanga, a Commodity code, encompasses specialty produce items sourced by state and local government food-service operations. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show a pattern of competitive food procurement driven by school districts, county recreation facilities, and healthcare coalitions seeking fresh produce and perishable food items. The Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food-service operations at North Collier Regional Park requiring vendors to supply diverse food and beverage options across multiple venues; the Early County Board of Education requested line-by-line bids for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program; and the Marion Health Care Coalition sought qualified produce vendors for the 2026-2027 contract period. Issuing bodies include county governments, school districts, and special-purpose healthcare coalitions, all emphasizing compliance with food-safety regulations, domestic sourcing where available, and operational reliability across multiple service locations.

Georgia and Florida represent the primary geographic centers of recent activity under this code. The State of Georgia solicited bids on food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 deadline, while Collier County, Florida issued its food-services ITN with a March 6, 2025 response date, and Early County, Georgia (Schools) bid for food and non-food items due June 8, 2026. The Early County Schools solicitation illustrates the scope depth typical of state and local demand: the district specified meats, poultry, seafood, dairy, vegetables, fruits, grains, and condiments, with delivered pricing including packing and transportation to three schools, firm pricing for 15 days post-award, and escalation provisions tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index benchmarks. Contract terms commonly run 12 months with renewal or extension options; vendors must carry general liability insurance ($500,000 minimum), comply with E-Verify and Buy American provisions, and maintain HACCP plans where required.
