UNSPSC 50305508: Mabolo/butter fruit persimmon

The variety of persimmons known as mabolo/butter fruit persimmon

UNSPSC 50305508 Mabolo/butter fruit persimmon (Commodity) appears rarely in state and local procurement; the recent opportunities block contains no direct solicitations for this specific item. School districts, child nutrition programs, and other state and local food-service buyers do source fresh produce regularly under broader fruit and vegetable contracts, but persimmons—and mabolo or butter fruit variants specifically—do not surface in the representative recent solicitations from school districts, cooperative purchasing consortia, or child nutrition agencies across Texas, Georgia, Florida, Connecticut, Utah, Oregon, and other active procurement jurisdictions. The code's nominal scope sits within institutional food-service procurement where districts buy seasonal fresh fruit by case or by weight, but recent activity shows heavy concentration on commodity staples: apples (multiple varieties), bananas, berries, citrus, melons, and tropical fruits (mangoes, pineapples, papayas), alongside leafy greens, root vegetables, and prepared or pre-cut options for school nutrition programs.

Recent institutional produce solicitations from entities including Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Madison Metropolitan School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, multiple Georgia school districts (Bryan County, Bulloch County, Dougherty County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Muscogee County), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), Austin ISD, Salt Lake City School District, Meriden Public Schools (Connecticut), and the GEC Buying Cooperative spanning 30 Georgia districts reflect the actual procurement pattern: requests for fresh-fruit-and-vegetable programs and school lunch contracts emphasize volume commodity fruits (apples by the case, bananas by the case), not specialty or seasonal boutique items like persimmons. The code merits monitoring if a school district or child nutrition program in a region with access to local or regional persimmon growers issues a Farm-to-School RFP with produce-by-origin specifications, but current activity does not support active pursuit. The 2026 solicitation calendar shows no persimmon-specific opportunities; vendors should watch cooperative purchasing frameworks and regional school-district local-produce initiatives rather than pursue the code directly in the near term.
