UNSPSC 50304900: Nectarines

A peach with a smooth-skinned fruit that is a frequent somatic mutation of the normal peach

UNSPSC 50304900 Nectarines is a Class code describing fresh fruit procurement by state and local governments, though recent state and local solicitation activity under this specific code shows little direct relevance; instead, the opportunities in the provided dataset reflect broader fresh produce buys encompassing multiple fruit and vegetable categories, with nectarines rarely itemized as a standalone line item.

School districts and county boards of education dominate the recent issuing-body mix, with multiple Georgia school systems (Glynn County, Dougherty County, Bulloch County, Bryan County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County) conducting sealed-bid procurements for comprehensive fresh produce supporting National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program operations. Texas school districts (McAllen, Austin) and other states (Florida's Hillsborough County Public Schools, Connecticut's Meriden Public Schools, Utah's Salt Lake City School District, Oregon's Central Point School District, Missouri's Kansas City School District, Michigan's Hancock County Schools) issue RFPs or IFBs for fresh produce ranging from 30 to 300+ line items annually. Specialized procuring entities include Head Start of Greater Dallas, City of San Antonio's Department of Human Services Senior Services Division, DeSoto County and Hancock County School Districts, Bartow County Schools, and the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia school districts across two geographic regions. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, followed by Texas, Florida, Utah, Connecticut, and Oregon; activity appears year-round with most procurement cycles tied to school calendar transitions (July through June fiscal years). Representative recent opportunities include the GEC Buying Cooperative (Douglas County School System) RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across two geographic areas with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million (proposals due March 4, 2026); Glynn County Board of Education IFB 27-02 for 60 fresh produce line items to 16 school sites (bids due April 14, 2026); and Hillsborough County Public Schools RFP 26039RFPDST for specialty fruits and vegetables supporting the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program to 18 elementary schools (proposals due March 11, 2026). Buy American provisions mandating domestic agricultural products are standard across school nutrition procurements, with HACCP plan and food safety documentation uniformly required. Pricing models typically employ firm fixed-price or cost-plus-fixed-fee structures with annual or six-month escalation reviews tied to USDA Agricultural Marketing Service or Consumer Price Index reporting. Most school contracts run July 1 through June 30 with optional renewal periods of one to four years.
