UNSPSC 50416820: Organic double gem corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic double gem corn

UNSPSC 50416820 Organic double gem corn, a Commodity code, sees limited recent state and local procurement activity tied directly to this produce type. The three recent opportunities posted under this code reveal a mismatch between the nominal scope and actual buying patterns: two solicitations (Collier County food services and Marion Health Care Coalition produce procurement) name fresh produce broadly without specifying organic double gem corn as a line item, while the Early County Schools bid lists produce generically across 300+ food items without isolating this variety. The Georgia state bid summary provides no itemization. When state and local governments do source produce through these channels — food service concessions, health-care facility provisioning, and school nutrition programs — they typically solicit via line-by-line bids or RFQ, with emphasis on domestic sourcing, compliance with USDA nutrition standards, food safety documentation (HACCP plans, recall procedures, temperature controls), and delivery logistics to multiple sites on compressed timelines. Issuing bodies include county parks departments, county school districts, health-care coalitions, and state procurement offices.

Recent activity spans Florida (Collier County ITN for concessions at North Collier Regional Park, response due March 6, 2025), Florida again (Marion Health Care Coalition RFQ for produce, due August 21, 2026), Georgia (state bid for food, supplies, and kitchen products, due June 22, 2026), and Georgia again (Early County Board of Education line-by-line food bid, due June 8, 2026). The code shows no clear concentration in any single jurisdiction or state. No representative solicitation explicitly names organic double gem corn as a requirement or line item, suggesting the code may be underutilized or misapplied by posting entities. Vendors pursuing procurement under this code should monitor school district, county parks concession, and institutional food-service RFQs in their target regions and confirm produce-type requirements at the pre-bid stage.
