UNSPSC 50416416: Organic red alert tomatoes

The variety of organic tomates known as organic red alert tomatoes

UNSPSC 50416416 Organic red alert tomatoes, a Commodity code, does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The seven opportunities identified in the source are solicitations for fresh produce, grocery items, and child nutrition services from school districts and state agencies, but none specifically reference tomatoes—organic, red alert, or otherwise—as a distinct line item or focal category. Instead, these solicitations name tomatoes incidentally within broader produce portfolios (for example, Bulloch County School District's Farm to School program lists tomatoes among 24 produce items, and Glynn County Board of Education's IFB includes 1,600 units of tomatoes in an approximately 60-line-item fresh produce procurement). The code's narrow commodity definition does not map to the multi-product bundles state and local governments actually purchase under fresh produce and food-service contracting.

Opportunities in the source span school districts and state agencies across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri, issued as RFPs, ITBs, and IFBs between February and May 2026, with response dates in March through June 2026. Representative solicitations include Northside Independent School District (San Antonio, Texas) RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce under USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable standards (due May 7, 2026); Bulloch County School District (Georgia) IFP for locally-grown produce within 200 miles (due May 4, 2026); and Douglas County School System (Georgia) RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two geographic areas with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One (due March 4, 2026). However, these opportunities do not isolate tomatoes or any single commodity as a procurement object; instead, tomatoes appear as one line item within comprehensive fresh produce frameworks. Business development professionals should monitor broader fresh-produce family codes rather than this narrowly-defined commodity code for relevant state and local activity.
