UNSPSC 10161530: Quince tree

Tree that yields the fruit known as quince

UNSPSC 10161530 Quince tree is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code show little activity directly aligned with quince tree procurement. Of the nine opportunities in the most-recent block, one explicitly names tree supply (Harris County ITB 26/0241 for various trees), three solicit tree planting and establishment services (Fitchburg, Maryland Environmental Service, and Hillsborough County), two solicit ornamental palm installation (Town of Palm Beach and Palm Beach County), and three are unrelated to tree procurement or forestry work (Arlington grounds maintenance, DeKalb IT infrastructure, and Dallas wastewater rehabilitation). The code appears to be a catch-all tag for tree-related solicitations across multiple service categories rather than a specific commodity procurement vehicle. Counties and municipalities issue the bulk of these opportunities, with no state-level or school district buyers represented in the recent sample.

The geographic spread spans Florida (Hillsborough County, Town of Palm Beach), Texas (Harris County, City of Arlington, Dallas County), Wisconsin (Fitchburg), Maryland (Maryland Environmental Service, Baltimore metro), and Georgia (DeKalb County), reflecting scattered municipal and county activity. Representative opportunities include Harris County's ITB for supply of various trees and related items (due September 28, 2026); the City of Fitchburg's 2026 Fall Tree Planting project soliciting bids for planting 66 trees across 17 species with performance bonds and one-year plant guarantees (ITB due August 25, 2026); Hillsborough County's tree replanting on scenic roads estimated at $742,380 with six-month establishment and twelve-month warranty (ITB due May 26, 2026); and the Town of Palm Beach's palm tree furnishing and installation for Peruvian Avenue (ITB due May 29, 2026). The code shows active municipal demand for tree procurement, site preparation, installation, establishment care, and warranty maintenance, though the solicitations conflate nursery supply, labor, and maintenance services under a single commodity designation.
