UNSPSC 50304955: Zee fire nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as zee fire nectarines

UNSPSC 50304955 Zee fire nectarines is a Commodity code that maps poorly to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single produce line item—nectarines of a specific variety—but the recent opportunities tagged with this code span a far broader scope: fresh fruit and vegetable supply contracts, CACFP meal programs, school nutrition produce procurement, senior center produce distribution, and institutional food service. The mismatch reflects a persistent classification issue: state and local procurement offices frequently tag multi-line solicitations for fresh produce, prepared foods, and kitchen supplies with narrow commodity codes that describe only one or two items in the package. Vendors pursuing this code face the practical challenge that the UNSPSC classification does not reliably predict deal flow or scope. Institutional food service buyers—correctional facilities, mental health centers, school districts, senior services, child care programs—drive the recent volume, but they are procuring produce as a line item within larger food-service or meal-program contracts rather than seeking nectarines specifically.

Recent activity clusters in Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Mississippi, and Florida, with issuing bodies dominated by state departments of correction and mental health, school districts and boards of education, city/county human services and parks departments, and Head Start and child care operators. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has issued four separate fresh-produce RFQs since late September 2026 (Wynne Food Warehouse and Snyder Food Warehouse, both due October 14; Palestine facility due October 19), all electronically submitted via the Bonfire portal with no disclosed contract values or terms. School districts represent the most active buyer segment: Madison Metropolitan School District issued separate bids for petite bananas (RFB 4162, $78,000 estimated annual value, due July 29) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, with geographic preference for Wisconsin-sourced produce within 400 miles); Hancock County Board of Education sought fresh produce across 200+ line items (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26); and DeSoto County and Early County boards in Mississippi and Georgia respectively issued bids for institutional produce distribution in June. Collier County, Florida issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food services at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025, with 10-point local-vendor preference). The Illinois Department of Mental Health and Corrections issued small-purchase procurements in August for fresh produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center and Madden Mental Health Center. If your firm supplies produce into institutional food service or school nutrition programs, monitor school district and state correctional-facility procurement offices directly rather than relying on UNSPSC 50304955 to surface relevant deals.
