UNSPSC 50417020: Organic dandelion greens

The variety of organic vegetable known as organic dandelion greens

UNSPSC 50417020 Organic dandelion greens is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh produce procurement by state and local entities, though recent solicitations tagged under this code reflect a broader produce and food-service scope than the code name suggests. State and local governments buy produce through this code for food-service operations at parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and government agencies. The issuing bodies include county boards of commissioners, school districts, state procurement offices, and healthcare coalitions. Recent opportunities span food concession services at regional parks, school nutrition programs under the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program, general produce delivery contracts for healthcare operations, and statewide food and kitchen-product procurement by state departments.

Activity appears across the Southeast and includes Collier County, Florida; Marion County, Florida; the State of Georgia; and Early County, Georgia.
