UNSPSC 50414605: Organic lila malanga

The variety of organic malanga known as organic lila malanga

UNSPSC 50414605 Organic lila malanga is a Commodity code that state and local governments do not currently procure under this specific designation. The recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code show no solicitations for lila malanga—a tropical root vegetable—or any organic variants. Instead, the opportunities describe broad fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, farm-to-school initiatives, and institutional food service across multiple states and school districts. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or a gap between taxonomic granularity and procurement practice. No vendors are actively competing for lila malanga supply contracts in the state and local market based on the available recent activity.

School districts, county boards of education, and independent school districts across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri have posted fresh produce solicitations heavily weighted toward staple fruits and vegetables—apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, and leafy greens—delivered weekly or bi-weekly to multiple school sites under child nutrition programs, farm-to-school initiatives, and the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an RFQ due June 8, 2026, for approximately 300 food items including produce under the National School Lunch Program; Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) posted RFP 2026-048 due May 7, 2026, for fresh produce compliant with USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable standards; Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida) solicited RFP 26039RFPDST due March 11, 2026, for specialty fruits and vegetables under the federally funded Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program at an estimated $600,000 annual budget; and the Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative due March 4, 2026, for approximately 72 produce line items serving 30 school districts across two areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two). Activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas school nutrition procurement, with secondary activity in Florida and Missouri. The code shows no current market for the specialty commodity it nominally describes.
