UNSPSC 50417011: Organic bean sprouts

The type of organic vegetable known as organic bean sprouts

UNSPSC 50417011 Organic bean sprouts is a Commodity code covering fresh produce items, particularly vegetables and fruits, that state and local governments source for food service operations across parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and regional institutions. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing organic and conventional produce through competitive bids and negotiations, with emphasis on quality standards, food safety compliance, delivery schedules, and seasonal pricing flexibility. Issuing bodies span county parks and recreation divisions, school districts operating national school lunch programs, state procurement offices, and healthcare coalitions. The Early County Board of Education's June 2026 bid for approximately 300+ food items—including vegetables, fruits, and specialty produce—exemplifies the scale and specificity typical under this code, with requirements for domestic sourcing, low-sodium and sugar-free formulations, and USDA compliance.

Recent activity centers on Georgia and Florida, where Early County Schools (Georgia), the State of Georgia, Collier County (Florida), and Marion Health Care Coalition have posted opportunities between May and October 2026. The Collier County Board of County Commissioners' Invitation to Negotiate for North Collier Regional Park food services (due March 6, 2025, posted October 8, 2026) sought a food vendor capable of sourcing diverse produce and beverage options across multiple park venues, with local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points for businesses with Collier or Lee County addresses and employee residency. The Marion Health Care Coalition's August 2026 produce RFP (due August 21, 2026) called for qualified vendors to provide fresh fruits and vegetables with seasonal pricing adjustments and freshness guarantees. The State of Georgia's May 2026 food supplies bid (due June 22, 2026) bundled produce with broader kitchen products. Early County Schools' June 2026 line-by-line food bid required domestic sourcing preference, whole-grain compliance, and delivery six days weekly at firm pricing, with a three-year contract term and renewal options.
