UNSPSC 50304924: Goldmine nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as goldmine nectarines

UNSPSC 50304924 Goldmine nectarines is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally identifies a single nectarine cultivar, but recent solicitations under this code span fresh fruit and vegetable supply across institutional food service — correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, senior services, mental health centers, and child care agencies. The mismatch signals that state and local procurement offices are tagging general produce procurement with this specific commodity code rather than using it to procure goldmine nectarines by variety. Issuing bodies include state departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health), school districts (Madison Metropolitan, DeSoto County, Hancock County, Dougherty County, Early County, Bryan County), county boards of education, cities (Bridgeport, Edinburg, San Antonio), and specialized organizations (Head Start agencies, Marion Health Care Coalition). The procurement does not reflect demand for a named cultivar; it reflects institutional fresh-produce procurement mislabeled within UNSPSC taxonomy.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Illinois, Georgia, and Connecticut. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice requesting fresh fruit and vegetables for the Palestine and Wynne food warehouses (RFP IW267376 and IW267411, due October 19 and October 14, 2026); Madison Metropolitan School District requesting petite bananas and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4162 and RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education requesting fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); and Head Start of Greater Dallas requesting grocery products including frozen and fresh produce (IFB 26-GP, bid opening June 24, 2026). School districts and state correctional agencies dominate the issuing bodies, with contract values ranging from estimated $78,000 (Madison Metropolitan petite bananas) to $969,460.94 (Head Start of Greater Dallas). The code shows no meaningful activity pursuing goldmine nectarines as a distinct product and should not be treated as a reliable signal for nectarine-specific demand.
