UNSPSC 50301593: White transparent apples

The variety of apples known as white transparent apples

UNSPSC 50301593 White transparent apples is a Commodity code identifying a specific fresh fruit product that state and local governments procure primarily for school nutrition programs, child care facilities, and senior services. Recent solicitations show school districts and child nutrition programs buying fresh apples — often specified by variety (Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz) and in bulk case quantities — as a staple component of breakfast and lunch service, Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program snacks, and institutional meal operations. The code sees active procurement from school districts across multiple states, typically embedded within larger fresh produce RFPs, RFBs, and ITBs where apples represent one line item among 40–200 produce categories.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent opportunities from Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Georgia), Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Bryan County Schools (Georgia), Dougherty County Board of Education (Georgia), Bulloch County Board of Education (Georgia), Henry County Schools (Georgia), and Austin Independent School District (Texas), along with child care and senior services buyers in Texas. Georgia school districts represent the highest concentration of recent activity. Procurement also occurs through school nutrition cooperative vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative, which aggregated demand from 30 Georgia districts in a single RFP. Representative recent opportunities include Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools issuing Bid 26-34 (posted March 22, 2026, due April 23, 2026) for 72 fresh produce line items including 21,125 cases of Fuji apples annually; Bryan County Schools issuing a sealed bid (posted April 27, 2026, due May 27, 2026) for approximately 1,024 cases of apples; and Hancock County Board of Education issuing IFB SN002-2027 (posted June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026) specifying six apple varieties across multiple case quantities. Pricing is typically firm for the contract period or subject to escalation clauses tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index data; delivery occurs weekly to school sites with temperature control and quality specifications. Georgia and Texas dominate the recent geographic activity, with secondary activity in Florida, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Oregon, and California.
