UNSPSC 50303654: St emilion grapes

The variety of wine grapes known as st emilion grapes

UNSPSC 50303654 St. emilion grapes, a Commodity code, maps poorly to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally covers a specific wine-grape variety, but the recent opportunities tagged under it predominantly solicit fresh produce supply and delivery for institutional food service — cafeterias, detention facilities, senior centers, and school nutrition programs — rather than viticultural products or grapes for wine production. Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued two fresh-fruit-and-vegetable solicitations (IW267376 for Palestine and IW267411 for Wynne Food Warehouse, both due October 2026), and Illinois Department of Corrections sought fresh-produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center under a small-business set-aside (due September 2026). These represent the breadth of institutional food-service procurement under the code.

Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and mental health, county school nutrition programs, municipal food-service departments, and regional cooperatives serving senior and child care networks. School districts dominate: Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Dougherty County Board of Education (Georgia), Bartow County School System (Georgia), DeSoto County School District (Mississippi), Bryan County Schools (Georgia), and Early County Board of Education (Georgia) all posted fresh-produce bids between April and July 2026. Georgia accounts for the heaviest recent concentration, with at least six school districts and one state agency solicitation visible. Texas (TDCJ, City of Edinburg, Head Start of Greater Dallas), Illinois (Department of Corrections, Department of Mental Health), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), Florida (Collier County), and Mississippi (DeSoto County) show secondary activity. Representative solicitations include DeSoto County School District's fresh-produce distribution RFB (due June 22, 2026) on a cost-plus-fee model with 97 percent service-level requirements; Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison (due July 29, 2026); and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for 200+ line items of fresh produce across multiple apple and vegetable varieties (due June 26, 2026). Institutional buyers weight cost heavily (30–40 percent evaluation), compliance with Buy American and USDA standards, traceability and HACCP plans, and delivery logistics — typically early-morning weekday delivery to central warehouses or individual school sites.
