UNSPSC 50302300: Breadfruit

The type of fruit known as breadfruit

UNSPSC 50302300 Breadfruit, a Class code, encompasses fresh fruit supply and delivery to state and local institutions, though recent state and local procurement activity under this specific code is dominated by broader fresh produce and food-service solicitations rather than breadfruit alone. State and local buyers issuing under this code include state departments of corrections and mental health, county school districts, cities, county parks departments, and specialized food-service organizations such as Head Start programs and senior services divisions. The work being solicited spans weekly or bi-weekly delivery of fresh fruits and vegetables to correctional facilities, schools, mental-health centers, parks concessions, and senior centers, with vendors typically responsible for maintaining cold-chain logistics, meeting USDA and state food-safety standards, and complying with prevailing-wage and Buy American requirements where applicable. Recent solicitations show that institutional buyers often bundle breadfruit and other produce into broader fresh-fruit-and-vegetable categories, with contract values ranging from tens of thousands to nearly $1 million annually and terms typically running one to three years with renewal options.

Activity is concentrated in the South and Midwest, with standout repeat buyers including the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (three separate fresh-produce solicitations posted in September and October 2026 serving correctional facilities in Palestine, Snyder, and Huntsville), multiple Georgia school districts (Hancock County, Dougherty County, Bartow County, Bryan County, Early County, and DeSoto County), and Illinois facilities (Illinois Department of Corrections at Joliet, Illinois Department of Mental Health at Hines). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's solicitation IW267376 for fresh fruit and vegetable supply to Palestine, Texas (due October 19, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce across multiple apple and vegetable varieties (due June 26, 2026), and Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas with an estimated annual contract value of $78,000 (due July 29, 2026). School districts and correctional systems dominate the buyer base, reflecting institutional meal-service demand, and many solicitations carry set-asides for small business, minority-owned, and woman-owned enterprises or local-vendor preferences worth evaluation points.
