UNSPSC 50102510: Brazil nuts, shelled

A tree nut with the shell removed.

UNSPSC 50102510 Brazil nuts, shelled is a Commodity code that captures nuts and similar specialty food ingredients state and local governments procure as components of broader food service operations. The recent opportunities tagged to this code, however, show little activity directly targeting shelled brazil nuts as a line item. Instead, the code appears within large grocery and food supply solicitations issued by school districts, state agencies, and health and human services facilities where the actual buying encompasses hundreds of items across general produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods. The issuing bodies are predominantly K–12 school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Douglas County School System in Georgia) and state health and social-service agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, State of Illinois, State of Georgia), with school nutrition programs driving the bulk of recent posting volume.

Geographic activity clusters in the South and Mid-Atlantic, with recent solicitations from Georgia, Texas, Virginia, Missouri, and Illinois. Representative opportunities include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026), a multi-site weekly delivery contract for 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens requiring bid on a minimum 76 items; Rockwood R-VI School District's Child Nutrition Services Grocery Items 2026-27 (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027, due April 29, 2026), covering over 900 line items with firm pricing for the school year; and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for Fresh Produce and Eggs (due March 4, 2026), encompassing approximately 72 produce and egg line items across 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 for food and consumable products at El Paso State Supported Living Center (due July 13, 2026) represents state agency food service procurement with a historical annual value of $1.5 million. Code activity appears sporadic at the commodity level; bidders should treat this code as secondary classification within large, multi-item food and grocery contracts rather than a standalone procurement driver.
