UNSPSC 10161528: Star fruit tree

Tree that yields the fruit known as star fruit

UNSPSC 10161528 Star fruit tree, a Commodity code, nominally covers fruit trees but shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity under this specific classification. The source records eight recent opportunities tagged to this code, yet only two involve actual tree planting or procurement aligned with the code's stated scope: the Maryland Environmental Service RFP for urban tree planting (800 trees, due July 16, 2026) and the Hillsborough County ITB for tree replanting of scenic roads ($742,380, due May 26, 2026). The remaining six solicitations diverge substantially from the code's nominal focus—including IT and low-voltage infrastructure reconstruction at a Georgia tennis facility, wastewater pipe rehabilitation in Dallas, palm tree installation in Palm Beach, native Florida tree seedlings for Tampa's Mayor's Tree Giveaway, forest management in Oregon, and generic seedling procurement for Nevada's wildlife department. The issuing bodies span state departments, county commissions, municipalities, and special-purpose districts across multiple regions. The procurement types are predominantly ITB and RFP with firm response deadlines, reflecting straightforward competitive acquisition rather than specialized market segments.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in Florida (Palm Beach, Tampa, Hillsborough County) and includes scattered solicitations in Maryland, Georgia, Texas, Oregon, and Nevada. The two most representative opportunities directly relevant to the code are the Maryland Environmental Service's RFP for procuring and planting up to 800 trees in the Baltimore metro area with a 10 percent MBE participation goal (due July 16, 2026) and Hillsborough County's ITB for replanting multiple tree species across eight scenic roadways with a one-year maintenance and 12-month warranty obligation (due May 26, 2026, estimated value $742,380). A third partly aligned opportunity is the Town of Palm Beach's ITB for furnishing and installing Royal Palm and Green Malayan Coconut Palm trees along Peruvian Avenue (due May 29, 2026). The code shows episodic activity tied to climate initiatives, public realm beautification, and landscape restoration projects rather than steady commercial fruit-tree procurement, suggesting limited sustained demand under this specific commodity classification.
