UNSPSC 50302207: Legacy blueberries

The variety of blueberries known as legacy blueberries

UNSPSC 50302207 Legacy blueberries is a Commodity code that covers fresh produce supply to institutional and public facilities, particularly correctional institutions, mental health centers, schools, senior services, and food assistance programs. State and local buyers under this code procure fresh fruits and vegetables—apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, onions, oranges, potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, and specialty items—for meal programs, food service operations, and nutrition initiatives serving populations from infants through seniors. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and mental health, county and municipal school districts, county boards of education, city human services divisions, and food program operators. Texas Department of Criminal Justice appears as a repeat buyer, soliciting produce for multiple food warehouse locations.

Recent activity concentrates in the South and Midwest, with Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, Florida, Connecticut, Mississippi, and Ohio school districts and state agencies posting opportunities between April and October 2026. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice requesting fresh fruit and vegetables for the Palestine facility (IFB, due October 19, 2026); Madison Metropolitan School District bidding petite bananas at an estimated $78,000 annual value (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within Wisconsin (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026); Collier County Board of County Commissioners soliciting food services at North Collier Regional Park via Invitation to Negotiate with local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points (ITN, due March 6, 2025); and the Illinois Department of Mental Health's Madden Mental Health Center establishing fresh fruits and vegetables supply for fiscal year 2027 under small purchase procurement (due August 14, 2026). School nutrition programs and institutional food service dominate the market, with Buy American provisions, prevailing wage compliance, HACCP plans, and insurance requirements ($500,000 to $1 million general liability) appearing across most solicitations. Payment typically runs Net 30 to Net 45 days, and contract terms span one to three years with renewal options.
