UNSPSC 50302304: Yellow heart breadfruit

The variety of breadfruit known as yellow heart breadfruit

UNSPSC 50302304 Yellow heart breadfruit is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialty produce items for institutional food service, though recent solicitation activity shows the code applies narrowly to actual yellow heart breadfruit purchases. Over the past six months, state and local jurisdictions have posted one solicitation explicitly tagged to this code—the City of Edinburg, Texas Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) meal service RFP, which includes breadfruit among a broader mixed produce and food-supply scope covering beverages, proteins, paper goods, janitorial supplies, and nonfood items for 400 children ages 1–18. The code sees minimal standalone activity; most state and local produce procurement occurs under broader fresh-produce and school-nutrition family and class codes. School districts, municipal child care programs, and food service agencies across Texas, Georgia, Connecticut, Florida, California, and Oregon drive the bulk of recent institutional produce spending, but few solicitations name yellow heart breadfruit or other specialty tropical fruits as distinct line items. When specialty produce does appear in state and local bids, it is typically bundled with commodity fresh fruits and vegetables rather than purchased separately.

The City of Edinburg RFP (RFP2026017, due August 4, 2026) represents the primary recent opportunity explicitly tied to this code. Edinburg is seeking food and nonfood items including specialty fruits to serve a CACFP program, with evaluation weighted toward cost (30%), qualifications and experience (25%), technical approach and program management (25%), and menu quality and nutritional value (20%), and a local-vendor preference applies for bids within 5% of the lowest price under Texas Local Government Code Section 271.9051. Beyond the Edinburg opportunity, the broader institutional produce market shows sustained demand for bananas, apples, leafy greens, broccoli, carrots, and berries—staple produce items that dominate school-nutrition and child-care procurement—but yellow heart breadfruit and similar specialty tropical fruits remain uncommon line items in state and local solicitations. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor CACFP and school-nutrition opportunities in Texas, Georgia, and Florida for potential specialty-produce components, but expect limited standalone demand and consider bundling with broader fresh-produce supply agreements to align with how state and local jurisdictions actually purchase specialty items.
