UNSPSC 50304524: Tommy atkins mangoes

The variety of mangoes known as tommy atkins mangoes

UNSPSC 50304524 Tommy atkins mangoes is a Commodity code representing fresh mango procurement for institutional food service, institutional dining, and child nutrition programs operated by state and local government. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show that governments purchase fresh produce—including tommy atkins mangoes alongside other fruits and vegetables—primarily to supply correctional facilities, mental health centers, school nutrition programs, senior services, and child care operations. The buying pattern reflects broad institutional food sourcing rather than mango-specific procurement; solicitations typically bundle mangoes within larger fresh-produce contracts covering multiple fruit and vegetable line items. Issuing bodies span state corrections departments, state mental health agencies, county and city school districts, county boards of education, cities operating senior services, and independent school districts. Texas Department of Criminal Justice appears as a repeat buyer, posting multiple fresh fruit and vegetable solicitations for its food warehouses and facilities.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Georgia, with additional solicitations in Wisconsin, Illinois, Connecticut, and Mississippi. Representative opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's fresh fruit and vegetable procurement for the Palestine facility (IFB, due October 19, 2026), the Illinois Department of Corrections' fresh produce contract for Joliet Treatment Center (IFB with small business set-aside, due September 3, 2026), the Bartow County School System's local fresh fruits and vegetables RFP in Georgia (due June 22, 2026), and Madison Metropolitan School District's fresh fruit and vegetable snacks bid in Wisconsin (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026). School districts dominate the opportunity count, reflecting federal Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) and National School Lunch Program funding. Many solicitations impose Buy American provisions, domestic-sourcing preferences, or geographic proximity requirements (produce sourced within 400 miles), and several include small business set-asides or diverse-vendor evaluation points. Contract terms typically run one fiscal year with optional renewal periods.
