UNSPSC 50305807: Autumn rosa plums

The variety of plums known as autumn rosa plums

UNSPSC 50305807 Autumn rosa plums is a Commodity code that represents a narrow product line within fresh produce supply chains. State and local governments procure autumn rosa plums almost exclusively as part of broader fresh fruit and vegetable supply contracts serving correctional facilities, mental health institutions, school nutrition programs, senior services, and child care facilities. The code rarely appears as a standalone procurement; instead, autumn rosa plums are typically one line item within larger food-service RFQs, RFPs, or IFBs that bundle multiple produce varieties under unified delivery and quality specifications. Issuing bodies include state departments of corrections, state departments of mental health, county and municipal school districts, municipal departments of human services, and independent school districts across the United States. Texas Department of Criminal Justice appears as a repeat buyer, having issued multiple fresh fruit and vegetable solicitations over recent months for its regional food warehouses.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Wisconsin, Florida, Mississippi, Connecticut, and California. Representative solicitations include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's fresh fruit and vegetable solicitation for the Palestine facility (RFQ IW267376, due October 19, 2026), the Illinois Department of Mental Health's fresh fruits and vegetables contract for Madden Mental Health Center (RFQ 27444DHSMENTHB53608, due August 14, 2026, small purchase set-aside), the Madison Metropolitan School District's petite bananas bid (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026, annual value $78,000), and the Dougherty County Board of Education School Nutrition Program's fresh produce bid covering 40 line items (sealed bid PE64710NONST2027000000078, due June 16, 2026). All solicitations require USDA compliance, food-safety certifications such as HACCP plans, commercial liability insurance, and firm fixed pricing with no fuel surcharges. Buy American provisions apply to school nutrition and correctional facility contracts. Geographic sourcing preferences—such as the Wisconsin Supplier Diversity Program eligibility (Madison Metropolitan School District RFB 4163) and Bartow County School System's 400-mile local sourcing requirement—are increasingly common. Award timelines typically span 30–90 days from bid opening, and contract terms run 12 months with renewal options.
