UNSPSC 50303206: Worcestershire gooseberries

The variety of gooseberries known as worcestershire gooseberries

UNSPSC 50303206 Worcestershire gooseberries is a Commodity code that does not map to meaningful recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally identifies a single specialty fruit—Worcestershire gooseberries—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span fresh produce distribution broadly across institutional food service (correctional facilities, mental health centers, schools, senior services, child care programs) and regional health care coalitions. None of the solicitations specifically name or target Worcestershire gooseberries; instead, buyers are procuring general fresh fruits, vegetables, and seasonal produce in bulk for meal programs. The code shows little relevance to current purchasing patterns and appears to be a cataloging mismatch rather than an active procurement category.

When recent activity does appear under the code, it reflects highly fragmented buying across multiple issuing bodies—the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health, multiple Georgia school districts (Bryan County, Bartow County, Dougherty County, Hancock County, Early County), Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin, Collier County Board of County Commissioners in Florida, the City of Edinburg and Head Start of Greater Dallas in Texas, and the City of San Antonio and City of Bridgeport in their respective states—with no repeat buyer pattern. Response dates clustered between May and October 2026, and contract terms typically span a single fiscal year with renewal options. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Wisconsin, and Florida, with secondary activity in Illinois, Connecticut, and Mississippi. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB for fresh fruit and vegetables to Palestine (due October 19, 2026), Collier County's ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025, with local-vendor preference valued at 10 points), Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB for petite bananas projected at $78,000 annually (due July 29, 2026), and the Illinois Department of Corrections' small-purchase RFQ for fresh produce to Joliet Treatment Center with a small-business set-aside (due September 3, 2026). Skip this code unless you have confirmed end-user demand for the specific variety named; the category does not reflect current market activity.
