UNSPSC 50304620: Honeydew melons

Any of a variety of muskmelon vines having fruit with a smooth white rind and white or greenish flesh that does not have a musky smell

UNSPSC 50304620 Honeydew melons is a Commodity code. State and local governments do not procure honeydew melons directly under this code based on recent solicitation activity. The source shows no recent opportunities tagged to honeydew melons specifically. Instead, the most recent state and local food-service solicitations (spanning school districts, child nutrition programs, senior services, and correctional facilities across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Utah, and other states) procure fresh produce under broader family-level codes covering comprehensive fruit and vegetable line items—apples, bananas, carrots, lettuce, tomatoes, broccoli, berries, citrus, melons, and dozens of other items purchased in bulk cases. Melons appear as line items within those broader produce bids, but no issuing body has isolated honeydew melons as a standalone procurement vehicle or assigned this specific commodity code to a recent opportunity.

The sourced recent opportunities reflect school nutrition programs, child and adult care food programs, senior services, and correctional food services issued by jurisdictions including Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida), Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), multiple Georgia school districts (Bulloch County, Dougherty County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Bryan County, Hancock County), the City of Edinburg (Texas), Head Start of Greater Dallas, McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin Independent School District (Texas), Meriden Public Schools (Connecticut), Central Point School District (Oregon), Salt Lake City School District (Utah), and the County of Santa Clara (California). These buyers source produce through RFPs, RFBs, and ITBs with response dates spanning February through July 2026, awarding contracts on cost-plus-fixed-fee or firm-fixed-price bases with weekly or bi-weekly deliveries. No opportunity specifies honeydew melons as a distinct line item or procurement focus. Pursuing this code requires identifying smaller institutional food-service buyers or specialty produce distributors serving niche demand; the recent activity does not support category-level pursuit at this time.
