UNSPSC 50303309: Triumph grapefruit

The variety of grapefruit known as triumph grapefruit

UNSPSC 50303309 Triumph grapefruit (Commodity) covers fresh citrus fruit supplied to state and local institutions, principally school districts and child-care programs running meal and nutrition services. Recent solicitations show that state and local governments purchase triumph grapefruit as part of broader fresh-produce procurements for child nutrition, breakfast and lunch programs, and food-service operations, often bundled with other produce varieties rather than as a standalone line item. The issuing bodies are predominantly school nutrition programs—including independent school districts, county boards of education, and multi-district cooperatives—alongside municipal and county departments managing child and senior nutrition services. Work includes weekly or bi-weekly delivery of fresh produce to multiple school sites and cafeteria locations, compliance with USDA Buy American provisions and HACCP food safety standards, temperature-controlled transport, and strict adherence to nutritional and quality specifications tied to federal child nutrition program rules.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, and Oregon, reflecting the geographic distribution of school-district procurement. Representative current solicitations include the GEC Buying Cooperative (Douglas County Schools, Georgia) RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 Georgia districts with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending and a proposal deadline of March 4, 2026; the Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida) RFP 26039RFPDST for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with proposals due March 11, 2026, and estimated annual budget of $600,000; and the Austin Independent School District (Texas) RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and beverages with proposals due March 11, 2026. Triumph grapefruit itself is not explicitly named in accessible bid documents, but the code's activity shows no dedicated single-commodity solicitations; instead, grapefruit competes within comprehensive fresh-produce line-item lists—typically appearing alongside apples, bananas, oranges, and other citrus when citrus is specified. The code shows limited recent standalone demand and would best be pursued as part of vendor strategies targeting multi-item school produce supply contracts where grapefruit can be offered as one of several citrus options.
