UNSPSC 50303905: Issai kiwi fruit

The variety of kiwi fruit known as issai kiwi fruit

UNSPSC 50303905 Issai kiwi fruit is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The code represents a single fresh produce item — a specialty kiwi variety — yet the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically naming issai kiwis. Instead, state and local buyers are procuring fresh produce broadly through school nutrition programs, child care food programs, and institutional food services, with kiwis appearing only as line items within comprehensive fresh-produce solicitations rather than as standalone procurements. The activity that does reference this code spans school districts, municipal food services, and child nutrition agencies across multiple states, all purchasing fresh fruits as part of larger meal-service contracts.

The recent state and local opportunities posted under or near this code reveal school districts in Georgia, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, Utah, and Oregon issuing RFPs and IFBs for fresh produce delivery to elementary and secondary schools. Representative examples include Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) requesting fresh produce for school nutrition with over 200 line items including kiwis, mangos, and other specialty fruits, with bids due June 26, 2026; McAllen Independent School District (Texas) seeking fresh produce for its Child Nutrition Program serving 20,000 students, with proposals due March 6, 2026; and the GEC Buying Cooperative (Georgia) issuing a multistate fresh-produce RFP to 30 school districts covering approximately 72 produce line items with an estimated combined annual value of $5.5 million. Issai kiwis—if procured at all—are embedded in these broad fresh-produce contracts rather than standing as discrete purchasing opportunities. The code's practical relevance to vendors lies not in direct kiwi-specific demand but in inclusion within institutional fresh-produce supply agreements where specialty fruits compete alongside commodity items like apples, bananas, and berries at commodity pricing within cost-plus-fixed-fee or firm-fixed-price frameworks.
