UNSPSC 50417059: Organic tendergreen

The type of organic vegetable known as organic tendergreen

UNSPSC 50417059 Organic tendergreen is a Commodity code covering fresh produce—specifically, leafy green vegetables—for purchase by state and local food service operations. State and local governments procure organic tendergreens primarily through school districts, county parks and recreation departments, and health care service coalitions to support meal programs, concession operations, and institutional food service. The solicitations in this code show demand for fresh produce meeting food-safety compliance, seasonal availability considerations, and quality-freshness guarantees, with pricing often adjusted for market conditions. Issuing bodies include county parks departments, school districts, state agencies, and health care coalitions—a mix reflecting the breadth of institutional food service across sectors.
