UNSPSC 50303420: Catawba grapes

The variety of table grapes known as catawba grapes

UNSPSC 50303420 Catawba grapes is a Commodity code. State and local governments procuring under this code are buying fresh produce and food products for child nutrition programs, school meal services, and correctional facilities, with recent activity heavily concentrated in school district food service procurement rather than grapes specifically. The issuing-body mix reflects school nutrition programs across multiple states — Georgia school districts dominate the recent opportunities, with additional activity from Texas school districts, Florida schools, Connecticut schools, Oregon schools, and California county corrections. These are primarily IFB and RFP procurements for produce and food items supporting National School Lunch Programs, CACFP (Child and Adult Care Food Program), and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs.

Georgia school districts drive the most visible recent activity, with sealed bids and RFPs posted by Bryan County Schools (fresh produce, May 27, 2026), Dougherty County Board of Education (fresh produce, June 16, 2026), Bulloch County Schools (fresh produce and local produce, May 4, 2026), Glynn County Board of Education (fresh produce, April 14, 2026), Liberty County Schools (produce and food products, April 29, 2026), Hancock County Schools (fresh produce, June 26, 2026), Muscogee County Schools (produce items, April 27, 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (fresh produce, April 23, 2026). Outside Georgia, the City of Edinburg, Texas solicited CACFP meal program supplies including fresh fruits and vegetables (August 4, 2026); Madison Metropolitan School District, Wisconsin solicited petite bananas and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (July 29, 2026); McAllen ISD, Texas requested fresh produce (March 6, 2026); Austin ISD, Texas solicited fresh produce and beverages (March 11, 2026); Hillsborough County Schools, Florida requested specialty fruits and vegetables for USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (March 11, 2026); Meriden Public Schools, Connecticut sought commercial groceries and produce (February 25, 2026); Central Point School District, Oregon issued RFP for fresh produce (March 16, 2026); and a Georgia buying cooperative (GEC) solicited fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts statewide (March 4, 2026). The code shows little activity aligned with its nominal scope — Catawba grapes do not appear in any of the recent solicitations examined. State and local procurement under this code reflects broad fresh-produce purchasing for institutional food service rather than a single commodity line.
