UNSPSC 50301636: Palstein apricots

The variety of apricots known as palstein apricots

UNSPSC 50301636 Palstein apricots is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its narrow product scope. The source identifies one representative opportunity—the City of Edinburg, Texas, issuing RFP 2026-017 for CACFP Meal Program food and nonfood supplies due August 4, 2026—but the Edinburg solicitation names apricots only as one produce item within a five-category food service basket (beverages, paper goods, food products, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items) serving approximately 400 children daily across five supply categories. The remaining recent opportunities in the dataset track fresh produce procurement broadly (apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, berries, citrus fruits, melons, tomatoes, lettuce, peppers, onions, potatoes, and eggs) and comprehensive grocery purchasing for school nutrition programs, child care programs, and detention facilities; none specifically targets Palstein apricots or apricot varieties by cultivar. The code as narrowly defined does not reflect what state and local governments actually buy under fresh produce or grocery solicitations.

State and local issuing bodies purchasing under the broader fresh produce space include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Bulloch County Schools, Henry County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Bryan County Schools, Dougherty County Board of Education, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, Central Point School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Early County Board of Education, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District), counties and cities (City of Edinburg, City of Bridgeport, DeSoto County Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, City of San Antonio, Bartow County School System, Santa Clara County), Head Start agencies, school nutrition cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative), and individual school districts across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Oregon, Mississippi, and California. Opportunities span RFP, RFQ, RFB, and IFB notice types with response dates from February through August 2026. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Florida, and the broader Southeast, with additional procurement in California, Connecticut, Oregon, and Mississippi. Because UNSPSC 50301636 specifies a single cultivar of a single fruit type and state and local food service procurement treats fresh produce as a commodity group (often 40–70+ line items mixed by season and availability within single solicitations), the code sees no meaningful recent state or local activity and does not serve as a useful targeting mechanism for business development in this market.
