UNSPSC 50304510: Keitt mangoes

The variety of mangoes known as keitt mangoes

UNSPSC 50304510 Keitt mangoes, a Commodity code, covers fresh mango procurement by state and local governments, though recent solicitation activity under this specific code is minimal and does not reflect concentrated demand. State and local procurement offices tag produce procurement broadly across school nutrition programs, institutional food service for corrections and mental health facilities, senior services, and child care food programs. The issuing bodies include state corrections and mental health departments, county school boards, municipal school districts, cities, and specialized providers like Head Start and senior services divisions. Actual procurement under the code reflects institutional fresh-produce buying—primarily apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, lettuce, onions, oranges, potatoes, strawberries, tomatoes, and specialty items like mangoes—rather than mango-specific solicitation. When mangoes do appear in specifications, they are listed as one line item among 40–200 other produce line items, not as a standalone procurement focus.

Recent opportunities show no dedicated Keitt mango solicitations; instead, mango appears incidentally in broader fresh-produce bids. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has posted multiple fresh-fruit-and-vegetable supply solicitations (IW267376, IW267420, IW267411) with October 2026 deadlines for food warehouse delivery across Huntsville and Palestine. School districts in Georgia, Mississippi, and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, DeSoto County, Bryan County, Early County, Dougherty County) have issued RFBs and IFBs for produce supplying 20–41 school sites, with bids due between May and July 2026 for contract periods running July 2026–June 2027. The Illinois Department of Corrections and Illinois Department of Mental Health sought fresh-produce suppliers in August 2026 under small-purchase and standard procurement processes. Head Start of Greater Dallas (Dallas, Texas) and the City of San Antonio's senior services division have also posted fresh-produce procurement. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Illinois, Wisconsin, and Connecticut, with school nutrition programs and correctional/mental health institutions as the primary buyers. No single opportunity identified Keitt mangoes as a specified commodity; mango procurement is embedded in comprehensive fresh-produce supply contracts where unit price, delivery reliability, and compliance with USDA and school nutrition standards drive award decisions over variety specification.
