UNSPSC 50305333: John henry peaches

The variety of peaches known as john henry peaches

UNSPSC 50305333 John Henry Peaches is a Commodity code covering fresh peach supply to institutional food-service operations, though the recent opportunities under this code span a far broader range of fresh produce and food-service items than peaches alone—reflecting how state and local procurement offices tag diverse commodity acquisitions under a single code. State and local governments buying under this code include Texas Department of Criminal Justice facilities, Illinois Departments of Corrections and Mental Health, county school districts, city school boards, senior services divisions, and health-care coalitions. The work being solicited ranges from weekly or bi-weekly fresh fruit and vegetable deliveries to correctional institutions and mental health facilities, to comprehensive produce procurement for school nutrition programs serving hundreds of children daily, to specialty items like petite bananas in precise ripeness stages and ready-to-eat, farm-sourced fresh-cut snacks. Issuing bodies include state department procurement offices (TDCJ, Illinois DOC, Illinois DMH), independent school districts (Madison Metropolitan, DeSoto County, Hancock County, Dougherty County, Early County, Bryan County, Bridgeport Board of Education), city departments (San Antonio Senior Services, City of Edinburg, City of Bridgeport), county boards of education and school systems (Collier County Parks and Recreation, Bartow County Schools), and nonprofit food-service agencies (Head Start of Greater Dallas, Marion Health Care Coalition). Contract values range from estimated annual values of $78,000 for petite bananas at Madison Metropolitan School District to $969,460.94 for Head Start of Greater Dallas' full grocery procurement, with many school-nutrition procurements in the $200,000 to $500,000 range.

Recent activity concentrates heavily in Georgia (Hancock County, Dougherty County, Bartow County, Bryan County, Early County school districts) and Texas (TDCJ multi-warehouse operations, City of Edinburg CACFP, Head Start of Greater Dallas), with additional solicitations from Illinois (DOC, DMH), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan), Florida (Collier County), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), and Mississippi (DeSoto County Schools). Texas Department of Criminal Justice has issued multiple concurrent RFPs for fresh fruit and vegetable supply to food warehouses serving correctional facilities—solicitation IW267376 for fresh fruit and vegetables to Palestine, Texas due October 19, 2026; IW267420 for Snyder Food Warehouse due October 14, 2026; and IW267411 for Wynne Food Warehouse in Huntsville due October 14, 2026. Madison Metropolitan School District issued RFB 4162 for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, approximately $78,000 annual value, due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison and Wisconsin with Wisconsin diverse-vendor preference (5,900 servings weekly, due July 29, 2026). Collier County Board of County Commissioners posted an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) for food services at North Collier Regional Park (multi-venue concession operations, local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points, March 6, 2025 due date). School districts commonly impose Buy American or domestic-sourcing requirements (minimum 51% domestic content, or 400-mile locational filters), apply prevailing-wage compliance in some states, and weight evaluation on cost (typically 30–40%), qualifications and experience (15–25%), menu variety and operational capability (20–35%), and diverse-business status (5–10 points). Most school-nutrition contracts run July 1 through June 30 with renewal options extending two to four years; institutional food-service contracts at correctional and mental-health facilities typically run one year with variable renewal provisions.
