UNSPSC 50301647: Royal orange apricots

The variety of apricots known as royal orange apricots

UNSPSC 50301647 Royal orange apricots is a Commodity code that does not reflect active state and local procurement demand. The recent opportunities in this dataset are soliciting fresh produce broadly — apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, onions, oranges, potatoes, tomatoes, and other staple fruits and vegetables — but no solicitation specifically names apricots, royal orange or otherwise. Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, school districts across Georgia and Wisconsin, and city and county food service operations are all posting produce RFQs and IFBs, but these opportunities cite general fresh-produce categories and itemized line-item specifications that do not isolate apricots as a discrete procurement line. The code's narrow commodity focus creates a significant mismatch with actual procurement practice in state and local food service, where produce is typically solicited as a broad category with line-item pricing across dozens of items rather than as single-fruit procurements.

Issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health), school nutrition programs (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Bartow County, Early County, DeSoto County), counties and cities (Collier County, City of San Antonio, City of Bridgeport, City of Edinburg), and nonprofit food-service operators (Head Start of Greater Dallas). Geographic activity spans Texas, Illinois, Florida, Wisconsin, Georgia, Mississippi, and Connecticut. Representative solicitations include Texas Department of Criminal Justice's RFQ for fresh fruit and vegetables to Palestine and Snyder food warehouses (due October 14–19, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for 200+ line items of fresh produce (due June 26, 2026), and Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles and within Wisconsin (due July 29, 2026). If pursuing this code, match activity to broad fresh-produce family codes rather than single-commodity codes, as state and local food procurement consolidates produce buying into comprehensive line-item solicitations.
