UNSPSC 50416424: Organic tumbler tomatoes

The variety of organic tomates known as organic tumbler tomatoes

UNSPSC 50416424 Organic tumbler tomatoes is a Commodity code that describes fresh produce items state and local governments procure for food service operations, though recent solicitations under this code show a broader mix of produce purchasing than the code name alone suggests. State and local buyers use this code to tag procurement of fresh fruits and vegetables for school meal programs, regional parks and recreation facilities, healthcare coalitions, and state food-service operations. The work involves vendor selection for reliable supply of fresh produce meeting food-safety standards, delivery schedules, quality specifications, and often domestic-sourcing or sustainability preferences. Issuing bodies include county boards of education, county parks and recreation departments, state procurement offices, and healthcare facility coalitions. School districts dominate recent activity, with purchasing tied to the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program; these jurisdictions typically demand line-by-line bidding, USDA compliance, and multi-item produce packages alongside other food and non-food supplies.

Recent opportunities span Georgia, Florida, and appear concentrated in school-district procurement. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB on May 11, 2026 for approximately 300+ food items including vegetables and fruits with bids due June 8, 2026, emphasizing domestic sourcing, whole-grain options, and low-sodium formulations under a July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract with renewal options. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) posted an ITN on October 8, 2026 for food services at North Collier Regional Park and concession facilities due March 6, 2025, which includes diverse food and beverage sourcing; the procurement applies a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points. Marion Health Care Coalition issued a produce RFP due August 21, 2026 seeking fresh fruits and vegetables for the 2026-2027 period. The State of Georgia posted a broader food-supplies IFB due June 22, 2026 that encompasses produce alongside other kitchen products. School districts typically set firm bid pricing for 12 months with escalation or de-escalation clauses tied to USDA or CPI benchmarks, require E-Verify and food-safety compliance documentation, and mandate Buy American provisions where applicable.
