UNSPSC 50304916: Early diamond nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as early diamond nectarines

UNSPSC 50304916 Early diamond nectarines is a Commodity code that does not align with documented state and local government procurement activity. While the code nominally covers a specific fruit variety, the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations explicitly seeking early diamond nectarines. The opportunities instead span broader fresh produce categories — fresh fruits and vegetables for institutional food service, school nutrition programs, senior services, and correctional and mental health facilities — across multiple produce items (bananas, apples, leafy greens, root vegetables, tomatoes, berries, and seasonal items) procured in volume cases or bulk quantities. No recent state or local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITN identified in the source targets nectarines, early-season or otherwise, as a standalone commodity line item.

State and local procurement activity under broader produce codes reflects high issuing-body diversity: Texas Department of Criminal Justice (four separate food warehouse solicitations), Illinois Department of Corrections and Department of Mental Health, Florida's Collier County Board of County Commissioners, multiple Georgia school districts (Bryan County, Bartow County, Dougherty County, Early County, Hancock County), Wisconsin's Madison Metropolitan School District, Texas cities (Edinburg, San Antonio), Connecticut's Bridgeport Board of Education, Mississippi's DeSoto County School District, and nonprofit organizations including Head Start of Greater Dallas and Marion Health Care Coalition. Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and the upper Midwest, with Illinois and Florida also active. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's solicitations for fresh fruit and vegetables to food warehouses in Palestine and Snyder (IFB responses due October 14–19, 2026), Collier County's Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (ITN, responses due March 6, 2025), and Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within Wisconsin and within 400 miles of Madison (RFB 4163, bids due July 29, 2026). The code as currently tagged does not reflect buying patterns; prospective vendors should verify whether nectarines appear in actual district or agency specifications before pursuing opportunities tagged to this code.
