UNSPSC 50415501: Organic ajies peppers

The variety of organic peppers known as organic ajies peppers

UNSPSC 50415501 Organic ajies peppers is a Commodity code that covers fresh chili pepper supply to state and local institutions, but recent state and local procurement activity shows virtually no direct solicitation for organic ajies peppers as a standalone commodity. Instead, the code appears tagged on broader produce and food-service solicitations—notably Georgia school nutrition RFPs and fresh produce procurements—where fresh peppers (including chili and bell varieties) are listed among dozens of produce line items bundled into comprehensive food-service contracts rather than procured in isolation. School districts, county boards of education, and state agencies are the primary buyers, with the sourcing activity driven by federal child nutrition programs (National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program) and institutional food service needs spanning elementary through high school campuses.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary representation in Missouri and Florida. Representative recent procurements include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026), procuring fresh produce and eggs for 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spend of approximately $5.5 million; Glynn County Board of Education IFB 27-02 (due April 14, 2026), soliciting fresh produce across 60 line items for 16 schools; Muscogee County School District ITB 26-017 (due April 27, 2026), seeking approximately 60 produce items including peppers; and Austin Independent School District RFP 26RFP034 (due March 11, 2026), covering fresh produce and beverages across all AISD food-service locations. All such procurements emphasize Buy American compliance, HACCP certification, USDA-approved facilities, weekly or twice-weekly delivery windows (typically 6:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.), domestic sourcing preference, and firm pricing for contract terms running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The code does not show standalone organic-pepper demand; organic certification and organic-specific sourcing do not appear in any recent posting, making category-specific pursuit unwarranted without prior confirmation of actual buyer intent.
