UNSPSC 50305330: Ice princess peaches

The variety of peaches known as ice princess peaches

UNSPSC 50305330 Ice princess peaches is a Commodity code that captures fresh peach procurement by state and local entities, but the recent opportunity record shows no direct solicitations for this specific cultivar. Instead, the opportunities tagged under this code predominantly reflect broader fresh produce procurement — primarily fresh fruits and vegetables for institutional food service across correctional facilities, school districts, senior centers, mental health facilities, and municipal parks. The issuing bodies include state departments of corrections and mental health, county and independent school districts, county parks authorities, and municipal human services divisions. Work being solicited ranges from standing produce-supply contracts for correctional food warehouses and school nutrition programs to specialized local-sourcing arrangements for school districts emphasizing regional fruit and vegetable procurement within defined radii (typically 400 miles) and seasonal availability commitments. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice seeking fresh fruit and vegetables for its Palestine facility (IFB, due October 19, 2026), the Madison Metropolitan School District requesting petite bananas in 150-count cases (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000), and the Illinois Department of Corrections seeking fresh produce bi-weekly deliveries to Joliet Treatment Center under a small-business set-aside (RFQ, due September 3, 2026). School districts frequently layer evaluation criteria weighting cost at 30–40 percent while assigning substantial points to local-sourcing compliance, organic or diversity certifications, and traceability documentation.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Wisconsin, Connecticut, and Florida, with school districts and correctional agencies as the primary repeat buyers. Texas agencies (TDCJ, City of Edinburg, Head Start of Greater Dallas) account for multiple recent opportunities. Georgia school districts (Bartow County, Hancock County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Early County, and DeSoto County) show sustained produce procurement through June and early July 2026. Collier County, Florida issued an ITN for food-service concessions at North Collier Regional Park (due March 6, 2025, local-vendor preference worth 10 points), and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut sought over 1,100 grocery line items including produce for the school board (IFB, due June 30, 2026). The concentration reflects school nutrition and institutional corrections purchasing patterns, with seasonal peaks in spring and early summer as districts solicit for new fiscal years beginning July 2026.
