UNSPSC 50416412: Organic marmande super tomatoes

The variety of organic tomates known as organic marmande super tomatoes

UNSPSC 50416412 Organic marmande super tomatoes is a Commodity code that sees minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code's abstract name describes a specific produce variety, yet the recent solicitations tagged under this code span generic fresh produce, fresh fruit and vegetable program items, and comprehensive grocery and child nutrition categories that include tomatoes as one line item among dozens of produce types rather than as a specialized organic marmande variety. The issuing bodies include state departments, county and independent school districts, and transit or nutrition authorities across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida, with school nutrition programs representing the dominant share of recent volume—Early County Board of Education, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Bulloch County, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, and Rockwood R-VI School District all solicited produce in the first half of 2026.

The mismatch between the code name and actual buying patterns suggests either miscoding by issuing bodies or that this code is used as a catch-all for tomato line items within larger fresh produce awards rather than for purchases of organic marmande tomatoes as a distinct commodity. Recent opportunities characterize produce procurement as multiyear school nutrition contracts with weekly or twice-weekly delivery requirements, HACCP and food safety compliance mandates, USDA Buy American provisions, and pricing pegged to federal terminal market reports or cost-plus models. Representative solicitations include the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (March 4, 2026 deadline, estimated $4.4 million Area One spending), Northside Independent School District's RFP 2026-048 (May 7, 2026, sealed bids for fresh produce across 47 schools with USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable compliance required), Early County Board of Education's line-by-line food and produce RFP (June 8, 2026), and Hillsborough County Public Schools' FFVP specialty fruit and vegetable program contract (March 11, 2026 deadline, $600,000 estimated annual budget). Purchasing activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida and Missouri. Vendors pursuing this code should expect competition focused on volume institutional supply, compliance depth, and price competitiveness against terminal market benchmarks rather than specialty produce sourcing.
