UNSPSC 50416818: Organic divinity corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic divinity corn

UNSPSC 50416818 Organic divinity corn is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually buying fresh produce — apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, peppers, carrots, tomatoes, and dozens of other produce line items — to support school nutrition programs, child nutrition services, and institutional food service operations. Recent opportunities show school districts dominating the buyer mix, including independent school districts in Texas (Northside ISD in San Antonio, Austin ISD, McAllen ISD), Georgia school districts (Early County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Glynn County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County as part of the GEC Buying Cooperative), and a Florida school district (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa), alongside state procurement offices in Georgia and a Missouri school district (Rockwood R-VI). These jurisdictions solicit fresh produce through RFPs, RFQs, ITBs, and IFBs; the work centers on weekly or twice-weekly deliveries of fresh fruits, vegetables, and occasionally eggs to school sites, with vendors required to meet USDA food safety standards, HACCP certification, Buy American provisions, and delivery compliance during standard school hours. Pricing is typically evaluated on a per-unit or per-case basis with firm pricing for the contract term or indexed to USDA market reports; school districts frequently award to multiple vendors on a line-item basis and include renewal options for up to three to five additional one-year terms.

The code sees concentrated activity across Georgia and Texas. Recent solicitations in Georgia include Early County Board of Education (RFP, due June 8, 2026), Liberty County Board of Education (IFB, due April 29, 2026), Muscogee County School District (ITB 26-017, due April 27, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Bid 26-34, due April 23, 2026), Glynn County Board of Education (IFB 27-02, due April 14, 2026), Bulloch County School District (RFP, due May 4, 2026), and Douglas County School System through the GEC Buying Cooperative (RFP SN 26-004, due March 4, 2026 with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two). In Texas, Northside Independent School District in San Antonio posted RFP 2026-048 (due May 7, 2026), McAllen Independent School District posted RFP 2026-1029 (due March 6, 2026 via addendum), and Austin Independent School District posted RFP 26RFP034 (due March 11, 2026). The State of Georgia and Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida) also solicited fresh produce through IFBs and RFPs in April and March 2026. School districts typically emphasize domestic sourcing, low-sodium and additive-free products, USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable compliance, and the ability to serve 100-plus line items across multiple pack sizes to support both regular school-year meal service and specialized programs such as the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP).
