UNSPSC 50305509: Principe ito persimmons

The variety of persimmons known as principe ito persimmons

UNSPSC 50305509 Principe ito persimmons, a Commodity code, represents a narrow fresh-fruit procurement category that state and local governments buy primarily through school nutrition and child care food service programs. Recent solicitations show that this code flags fresh-produce delivery contracts rather than persimmons as a stand-alone item — the code's nominal specificity does not align with how it is being tagged in practice. School districts and early childhood programs are the dominant issuing bodies, with activity concentrated in the Southeast (Georgia, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, Mississippi) and the Midwest (Wisconsin, Oregon).

The most recent activity under this code reflects institutional fresh-produce procurement for school meals and child care. The City of Edinburg, Texas, Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) RFP 2026-017 (due August 4, 2026) solicits food and nonfood supplies for 400 children ages 1–18 daily, including beverages, paper goods, proteins, vegetables, fruits, and janitorial supplies across five categories on a cost-weighted evaluation (30% cost, 25% qualifications, 25% technical approach, 20% menu quality). Madison Metropolitan School District issued RFB 4162 (due July 29, 2026) for petite bananas specifically — 70–90 cases weekly at an estimated contract value of $78,000 for September 2026 through June 2027 — and RFB 4163 (due July 29, 2026) for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison and Wisconsin, with a 5% preference for Wisconsin Supplier Diversity Program vendors. Head Start of Greater Dallas issued IFB 26-GP (due June 24, 2026) for primary, secondary, and tertiary grocery suppliers serving 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meats under CACFP requirements, with an estimated value of $969,460.94 over one year plus four renewal options. The code shows no relevant recent activity — the tagged opportunities are general food procurement RFPs and IFBs, not persimmon-specific sourcing.
