UNSPSC 50302401: Bays cherimoya

The variety of cherimoya known as bays cherimoya

UNSPSC 50302401 Bays cherimoya is a Commodity code that covers the procurement of specialty tropical fruits for institutional food service. State and local government buyers use this code narrowly—the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically requesting cherimoya. Instead, the code appears misaligned with actual procurement activity; cherimoya is not a commodity typically featured in the recent state and local food service contracting landscape. School districts, counties, and municipalities buying fresh produce through RFPs and ITBs focus on high-volume staples—apples, bananas, carrots, lettuce, broccoli, peppers, tomatoes, and potatoes—and seasonal items like berries and melons. Specialty tropical fruits such as cherimoya do not appear in any of the representative recent solicitations, which span child nutrition programs, school lunch contracts, senior meal services, and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program procurement across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Oregon, California, and Wisconsin.

The issuing bodies pursuing fresh produce procurement are primarily school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa, Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin, Bulloch County and Glynn County boards of education in Georgia, Henry County Schools in Georgia, McAllen ISD in Texas, Austin ISD in Texas, and Meriden Public Schools in Connecticut), cooperatives aggregating multiple districts (GEC Buying Cooperative representing 30 Georgia districts), county governments (Muscogee County, Liberty County, DeSoto County, and Glynn County in Georgia; Santa Clara County in California), cities (Bridgeport, Connecticut; San Antonio, Texas; Edinburg, Texas), and special-purpose nutrition providers (Head Start of Greater Dallas, Hillsborough County Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program). Geographic activity clusters heavily in Georgia, Texas, and the Southeast, with secondary activity in the Midwest, California, and Connecticut. Representatives recent opportunities include the GEC Buying Cooperative's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia districts with estimated spending of $5.5 million (due March 4, 2026); Bulloch County Schools' IFP for local produce within 200 miles of the county (due May 4, 2026); and Austin ISD's RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and beverages emphasizing Good Food Purchasing Program compliance (due March 11, 2026). No state or local solicitation in the dataset requests cherimoya, and the code shows no recent procurement activity aligned with its stated commodity scope.
