UNSPSC 50305364: Super lady peaches

The variety of peaches known as super lady peaches

UNSPSC 50305364 Super lady peaches, a Commodity code, encompasses fresh produce distribution to state and local institutional food service programs, specifically high-volume supplies of peaches and related fresh fruit to support school nutrition, child care, and senior meal programs. Recent activity shows school districts, child care operators, and municipal senior services departments procuring fresh produce through sealed bids and RFPs with firm fixed pricing or cost-plus structures, weekly or twice-weekly delivery requirements, and compliance with USDA food safety standards and Buy American provisions. The code sees sustained activity across multiple issuing-body types: school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Hillsborough County, Henry County, Glynn County, McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, Muscogee County, and others) account for the bulk of recent solicitations, supplemented by child care food program operators (City of Edinburg CACFP, Head Start of Greater Dallas), school nutrition consortiums (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts), and occasional municipal seniors programming (City of San Antonio senior produce markets). Representative recent solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 estimated annual value, due July 29, 2026), Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP for Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program specialty produce to 18 elementary schools ($600,000 estimated annual budget, cost-plus fixed-fee model, proposals due March 11, 2026), and the GEC Buying Cooperative's SN 26-004 covering fresh produce and eggs for 30 Georgia school districts across two regions ($5.5 million estimated annual spending, cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing, proposals due March 4, 2026).

Recent activity concentrates heavily in the South, particularly Georgia (Dougherty County, Hancock County, Bulloch County, Bryan County, Bartow County, Liberty County, Glynn County, and Henry County School Districts) and Texas (Austin, McAllen, Head Start of Greater Dallas), with additional procurement momentum in Florida (Hillsborough County), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools, $3.1 million anticipated 2026–27 value), and scattered single opportunities in California (Santa Clara County correction facilities' dried fruit procurement) and the Pacific Northwest (Central Point School District, Oregon, ~$302,000 annual spend). Evaluation weightings across solicitations consistently emphasize cost (30–50 points), followed by vendor qualifications and delivery reliability (15–25 points each), with secondary consideration for product quality, food safety compliance, and local or minority-owned business status where applicable. Minimum insurance requirements typically run $500,000 to $2,000,000 general liability, HACCP plan documentation and 24/7 recall accessibility are now standard conditions, and most contracts run July 1 through June 30 with renewal options extending three to five years total. No set-asides specific to peaches are evident; most solicitations are open competitive with optional diversity preferences rather than mandatory set-asides. Pursuit opportunity remains strong across school nutrition, CACFP, and federal Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program channels, though the code's specificity to a single fruit variety (super lady peaches) means most opportunities will blend peaches into broader fresh-produce categories rather than isolating peach supply alone.
