UNSPSC 50304924: Goldmine nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as goldmine nectarines

UNSPSC 50304924 Goldmine nectarines is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure fresh produce, notably nectarines and other specialty fruits, through school nutrition programs serving National School Lunch Program and Child and Adult Care Food Program meals, along with specialized federal initiatives such as the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. Issuing bodies are predominantly K-12 school districts (independent districts, county boards of education, and regional consortia), child care agencies operating Head Start and CACFP programs, senior services divisions, and detention facilities. School districts represent the dominant buyer category, issuing sealed bids, RFPs, and RFQs for produce contracts spanning full school years with annual values ranging from tens of thousands to several million dollars. Recurring buyers include large urban districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools, Austin Independent School District, Meriden Public Schools) and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative, which aggregates demand across dozens of Georgia districts.

The code shows substantial recent activity concentrated in the Southeast, particularly Georgia, where school district procurement dominates: Glynn County, Savannah-Chatham County, Bryan County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Dougherty County, Henry County, Hancock County, Early County, and Bartow County all posted fresh produce solicitations between March and June 2026. Texas school districts (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD) and Florida districts (Hillsborough County) round out major procurement centers, with additional activity in Connecticut (Meriden), Oregon (Central Point), and California (Santa Clara County). Representative recent opportunities include Glynn County Board of Education's sealed-bid procurement for approximately 60 produce line items due April 14, 2026 (IFB 27-02); Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP for specialty fruits and vegetables for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program due March 11, 2026 ($600,000 estimated annual value); GEC Buying Cooperative's statewide Georgia RFP covering 30 districts across two geographic areas with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending, due March 4, 2026; and the City of Edinburg, Texas, CACFP meal program RFP including fresh fruits and nectarines among five supply categories, due August 4, 2026. Buy American provisions, HACCP compliance, USDA compliance certifications, and liability insurance minimums ($500,000 to $2,000,000 general liability) are standard requirements across solicitations.
