UNSPSC 50305318: Early treat peaches

The variety of peaches known as early treat peaches

UNSPSC 50305318 Early treat peaches is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure early-season peaches primarily through institutional food service channels—correctional facilities, mental health centers, school districts, senior centers, and regional health coalitions—where produce appears as one line item within broader fresh-fruit-and-vegetable supply contracts. Recent solicitations show peaches solicited alongside mixed produce portfolios (apples, bananas, berries, citrus, root vegetables) rather than as standalone items, reflecting how public procurement offices bundle seasonal stone fruits with year-round staples. Issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and mental health, county and city school districts, municipal senior services divisions, and special-purpose health coalitions. Texas Department of Criminal Justice has posted multiple fresh-produce RFPs covering food warehouse supply to multiple facilities; Illinois Department of Corrections and Illinois Department of Mental Health have similarly solicited produce delivery; and school districts in Wisconsin, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, Connecticut, and Ohio have released fresh-produce bids encompassing seasonal fruits.

Activity concentrates in the South and Midwest, with recent solicitations from Texas (TDCJ Palestine and Snyder and Wynne facilities), Illinois (Joliet Treatment Center, Madden Mental Health Center), Georgia (Bartow County, Dougherty County, Hancock County, Bryan County school systems), Mississippi (DeSoto County), and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District). Typical scope elements include weekly or bi-weekly delivery of specified quantities at guaranteed quality standards (firm, unblemished, properly ripened), temperature-controlled transport, compliance with USDA and HACCP protocols, and Buy American or domestic-sourcing preferences where federal child nutrition or state law mandates apply. Representative opportunities include Texas Department of Criminal Justice IW267376 (Fresh Fruit & Vegetables, Palestine, RFP due October 19, 2026), Illinois Department of Corrections 27426DOCJOLIEB53849 (Fresh produce, Joliet Treatment Center, RFQ due September 3, 2026, small-business set-aside), and Madison Metropolitan School District RFB 4162 (Petite Bananas, $78,000 estimated annual value, bids due July 29, 2026). Early peaches do not appear as a named line item in any recent solicitation; activity under this code likely reflects indirect procurement through produce-distributor supply agreements that include seasonal stone fruits as part of mixed-produce portfolios rather than standalone peach purchases.
