UNSPSC 50416426: Organic yellow pear-shaped tomatoes

The variety of organic tomates known as organic yellow pear-shaped tomatoes

UNSPSC 50416426 Organic yellow pear-shaped tomatoes is a Commodity code that does not align with the actual procurement activity in the recent state and local opportunities. The source shows no solicitations specifically requesting organic yellow pear-shaped tomatoes; instead, the tagged opportunities span broad fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, child nutrition services, and farm-to-school initiatives across multiple districts and states. The mismatch between the narrow commodity definition and the general produce-buying activity means this code shows little relevant recent purchasing signal for vendors specializing in organic yellow pear-shaped tomato supply.

State and local school nutrition programs—including early-childhood and K–12 districts in Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Missouri—are the primary issuing bodies soliciting fresh produce under the broader produce category that this code nominally describes. Recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education (RFP for line-by-line food bids due June 8, 2026), Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa (RFP 26039RFPDST for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, posted April 13, 2026), Northside Independent School District in San Antonio (RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce due May 7, 2026), Bulloch County School District (RFP for locally grown produce due May 4, 2026), and the Douglas County School System (RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for 30 school districts, due March 4, 2026, with estimated annual spend of $4.4 million for Area One alone). These solicitations call for weekly or twice-weekly delivery of produce in bulk cases to multiple school sites, compliance with USDA food safety and Buy American standards, HACCP certification, liability insurance, and firm pricing—typical institutional school-food procurement. The code's specific focus on organic yellow pear-shaped tomatoes does not correspond to any named line item or stated preference in these opportunities, which instead request broad assortments of apples, carrots, broccoli, potatoes, leafy greens, berries, citrus, and other commodity produce at commodity pricing indexed to USDA market reports.
