UNSPSC 50302304: Yellow heart breadfruit

The variety of breadfruit known as yellow heart breadfruit

UNSPSC 50302304 Yellow heart breadfruit is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure fresh produce—primarily bananas, apples, berries, root vegetables, leafy greens, and other fruits and vegetables—for institutional food service at correctional facilities, mental health centers, school districts, senior centers, and child care programs. Recent solicitations show that purchasing bodies use this code to acquire fresh produce for meal programs serving incarcerated populations, patients, students, and seniors, with delivery typically required multiple times per week and compliance mandated for food safety, USDA nutrition standards, and Buy American provisions where applicable. Issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health), county school districts (DeSoto County, Hancock County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Early County, Bartow County in Georgia; Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin), municipal agencies (City of San Antonio Senior Services, City of Bridgeport Board of Education, City of Edinburg), and specialized procurement entities (Head Start of Greater Dallas, Marion Health Care Coalition). School districts dominate the recent opportunity set, reflecting ongoing demand for fresh produce under Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and National School Lunch Program (NSLP) funding.

The code shows sustained activity across the South and Midwest, with particular concentration in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Wisconsin, Mississippi, Connecticut, and Colorado. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB for fresh fruit and vegetables to the Palestine facility (IW267376, response deadline October 19, 2026), Madison Metropolitan School District's sealed bid for petite bananas at $78,000 annual value with 70–90 weekly cases (RFB 4162, bids due July 29, 2026), Hancock County Schools' fresh produce bid for the 2026–27 school year covering over 200 line items (IFB SN002-2027, sealed bids due June 26, 2026), the Illinois Department of Corrections' small-purchase fresh produce request for Joliet Treatment Center with bi-weekly delivery and prevailing wage compliance (quote due September 3, 2026), and Head Start of Greater Dallas' IFB for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen and fresh produce at estimated value $969,460.94 (sealed bids due June 24, 2026). Contract terms typically run one fiscal or school year with optional renewal periods, prices are held firm throughout the term absent documented market escalation, and delivery volumes vary by institution size and meal participation.
