UNSPSC 50416851: Organic radiance corn

The variety of organic corn known as organic radiance corn

UNSPSC 50416851 Organic radiance corn, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual procurement activity in the recent state and local opportunities indexed under it. The code nominally refers to a single specialty corn product, yet the recent solicitations documented in the state-local-contract-opportunities block span institutional fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs, farm-to-school initiatives, and general food service supply across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, and Florida. These solicitations request comprehensive fresh produce line items—apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, leafy greens, citrus, berries, eggs, and dozens of other commodities—rather than organic radiance corn specifically. The mismatch between the code's narrow product scope and the breadth of the solicitation documents suggests that the code assignment in the source does not accurately classify the work being procured.

School districts and boards of education dominate the issuing bodies, with Georgia school systems appearing most frequently: Early County Board of Education (RFP for 300+ food items and 60 non-food products, due June 8, 2026), Bulloch County School District (Invitation for Proposal for locally grown produce within 200 miles, due May 4, 2026), Liberty County Board of Education (IFB for produce and food products, due April 29, 2026), Glynn County Board of Education (IFB for fresh produce, due April 14, 2026), Muscogee County School District (ITB for produce items, due April 27, 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Bid for fresh produce, due April 23, 2026). Texas independent school districts also feature prominently: Northside Independent School District in San Antonio (RFP for fresh produce with USDA Child Nutrition Reimbursable compliance, due May 7, 2026), McAllen Independent School District (RFP for fresh produce, due March 6, 2026), and Austin Independent School District (RFP for fresh produce and beverages, due March 11, 2026). The State of Georgia and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida round out the geographic spread, with the State of Georgia issuing a general food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026) and an IFB for fresh produce (due May 27, 2026), and Hillsborough County seeking fresh fruit and vegetable program produce for USDA-funded elementary school distribution (due March 11, 2026). The Douglas County School System coordinated an RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative spanning 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (due March 4, 2026). Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited grocery items including produce for its child nutrition services (due April 29, 2026). The recent activity shows no connection to organic radiance corn as a distinct commodity and instead reflects institutional food service procurement where fresh produce is one component of a broader food supply contract.
