UNSPSC 50416113: Organic wild spinach

The variety of organic spinach known as organic wild spinach

UNSPSC 50416113 Organic wild spinach is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure fresh produce—including leafy greens, spinach, and mixed vegetables—primarily through school nutrition and institutional food service programs, though the recent solicitations indexed under this code show minimal direct activity for spinach specifically and instead reflect broad fresh-produce procurement across dozens of line items. School districts dominate the buying base, with Early County Schools, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida), Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District (Texas), and Austin Independent School District (Texas) all posting RFPs or ITBs for mixed fresh-produce contracts during March through June 2026. State procurement offices in Georgia have also issued IFBs for fresh produce supporting state operations. The work being solicited ranges from weekly or twice-weekly delivery of 50+ produce line items (apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, berries, citrus, potatoes, eggs, and many others) to specialized programs such as the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program and Farm to School initiatives emphasizing locally sourced or specialty items.
