UNSPSC 50303436: Fantasy seedless grapes

The variety of table grapes known as fantasy seedless grapes

UNSPSC 50303436 Fantasy seedless grapes is a Commodity code. State and local governments rarely procure this item under the code's nominal designation. The source includes no opportunities explicitly requesting fantasy seedless grapes; instead, the fifteen recent solicitations tag this code while procuring broad fresh-produce bundles—fresh fruits and vegetables for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, senior centers, child care food programs, and mental health facilities. The actual buying spans bananas, apples, berries, root vegetables, leafy greens, tomatoes, peppers, citrus, melons, and dozens of other produce line items delivered on recurring cycles to food service operations. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and mental health, county boards of education, city school districts, county health and senior-services divisions, regional health coalitions, and specialized agencies such as Head Start. School districts dominate the recent activity, with multiple Georgia counties (Bryan, Dougherty, Bartow, Hancock, DeSoto), Wisconsin's Madison Metropolitan School District, the Illinois Department of Mental Health, the Illinois Department of Corrections, and Texas school food programs all active in the past five months. The code as currently tagged does not reflect what is actually being bought.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia—seven of the fifteen recent opportunities—with secondary clusters in Texas (three), Illinois (two), and Wisconsin (two). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued two separate fresh-produce solicitations in September and October 2026 (Snyder and Wynne food warehouses, response deadlines October 14 and 19), while Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) solicited food-service concessions including produce delivery via Invitation to Negotiate (ITN 258360, response due March 6, 2025). Madison Metropolitan School District requested bids for petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks under USDA grant funding (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026, sourced within 400 miles and Wisconsin only). School districts typically issue RFBs or ITBs with firm-price, fixed-term awards running July through June and contract values ranging from $78,000 to $969,460 (Head Start of Greater Dallas, June 2026). Buy American provisions, 51 percent domestic-content requirements, local-vendor preferences worth 5–15 evaluation points, diverse-business set-asides, and prevailing-wage compliance are standard across jurisdictions. Vendors face weekly or bi-weekly delivery schedules to multiple sites, 97–98 percent fill-rate minimums, HACCP plan submission, $500,000 to $2 million general liability insurance, and payment cycles of 30–45 days.
