UNSPSC 50305341: Queencrest peaches

The variety of peaches known as queencrest peaches

UNSPSC 50305341 Queencrest peaches, a Commodity code, covers fresh peach procurement by state and local governments, though the recent opportunities block shows no sourcing activity specific to Queencrest or any branded peach variety. Instead, state and local buyers under this code are purchasing fresh fruit and vegetable supplies broadly—including apples, bananas, berries, citrus, and seasonal produce—for institutional food service, correctional facilities, mental health centers, school nutrition programs, and senior services. The issuing bodies span state departments of corrections and mental health (Texas TDCJ, Illinois Department of Corrections and Department of Mental Health), county school districts (Hancock County, Bryan County, Dougherty County, Early County, DeSoto County, Madison Metropolitan School District), municipal school systems (Bridgeport Board of Education), city senior services divisions (San Antonio), and specialized food-service programs (Head Start, CACFP child care networks). Texas and Georgia school districts and state agencies show the strongest recent activity, with multiple procurements posted between April and October 2026 seeking produce sourcing for institutional meal operations.

Recent opportunities frame the work as multi-item fresh fruit and vegetable supply and delivery under firm fixed-price or cost-plus-fee models, typically with weekly or bi-weekly deliveries to multiple sites, compliance with USDA and HACCP standards, Buy American provisions for school meal programs, and pricing that includes transportation and packaging. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's procurement for fresh fruit and vegetables to its Palestine facility (IFB IW267376, due October 19, 2026) and Wynne Food Warehouse (IFB IW267411, due October 14, 2026); the Illinois Department of Corrections' request for produce delivery to Joliet Treatment Center (IFB 27426DOCJOLIEB53849, small business set-aside, due September 3, 2026); and multiple school district RFBs including Hancock County Board of Education (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) and Bryan County School Nutrition (sealed bid, due May 27, 2026). Evaluation criteria typically weight cost at 30–40%, with secondary scoring on vendor qualifications, service capability, compliance, and in some cases local-vendor or diverse-business-enterprise preferences. No activity under the code shows recent pursuit of Queencrest peaches as a branded line item; all sourcing reflects commodity-level, mixed-produce supply and distribution.
