UNSPSC 50305607: Red spanish pineapple

The variety of pineapples known as red spanish pineapple

UNSPSC 50305607 Red spanish pineapple, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product line with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The single opportunity traceable to this specific code—Solicitation RFP2026017 from the City of Edinburg, Texas, for CACFP meal program supplies posted July 16, 2026—lists pineapple only as one item within a five-category food procurement spanning beverages, paper goods, proteins, janitorial supplies, and nonfood products; the solicitation does not isolate pineapple pricing, volume, or sourcing. The broader opportunities block shows strong activity in fresh produce procurement across school districts, senior services, and child nutrition programs, but these solicitations span dozens of line items (apples, bananas, broccoli, carrots, citrus, leafy greens, berries, tomatoes, and many others) with no emphasis on or exclusive focus on red Spanish pineapple or any single tropical fruit variety. The code's abstract name does not align with how state and local governments are actually buying produce right now.

State and local issuing bodies pursuing fresh fruit and vegetable procurement include school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County Schools, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Hillsborough County, Bulloch County, Dougherty County, Glynn County, Bryan County, McAllen ISD, Central Point School District, Austin ISD), county school boards (Hancock County, Early County, Bartow County), child care and Head Start programs (City of Edinburg CACFP, Head Start of Greater Dallas), municipal departments (City of San Antonio senior services), and cooperative purchasing consortiums (GEC Buying Cooperative). Geographic concentration is highest in Georgia and Texas, with additional activity in Florida, Connecticut, Mississippi, Wisconsin, Oregon, and California. Produce procurement is typically bundled across 40 to 200+ line items in single RFP/IFB solicitations, with evaluation weighted toward cost (30–50 points), quality and compliance (15–30 points), vendor qualifications (10–25 points), and delivery/service capability (10–20 points). Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District (RFB 4162, petite bananas; RFB 4163, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks; both due July 29, 2026); Dougherty County Board of Education (sealed bids for 40 produce line items, due June 16, 2026); and the GEC Buying Cooperative (SN 26-004, fresh produce and eggs across two Georgia areas, approximately $5.5 million estimated value, due March 4, 2026). The code shows little relevant recent activity—no solicitations isolate red Spanish pineapple or seek it as a standalone procurement category at state or local level.
