UNSPSC 50305812: Black diamond plums

The variety of plums known as black diamond plums

UNSPSC 50305812 Black diamond plums is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure fresh plums under this code as part of broader produce sourcing for child nutrition, school meal programs, and senior services, though recent solicitations show minimal direct demand for black diamond plums specifically. The code sits within fresh fruit procurement tied to federal child and adult care food programs, school nutrition services, and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program initiatives. Issuing bodies span school districts, child care agencies, and municipal departments managing senior services and institutional meal programs. School districts represent the dominant buyer category, supplemented by Head Start organizations, county boards of education, and city departments operating senior centers or child care facilities.

The most recent activity clustered between February and July 2026 reflects heavy procurement in school nutrition across Georgia, Texas, Florida, Connecticut, Oregon, and California. Representative solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 requesting petite bananas (due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks with a 400-mile Wisconsin sourcing requirement; Hancock County Board of Education's IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce including multiple apple and berry varieties across 200 line items (due June 26, 2026); Glynn County Board of Education's IFB 27-02 for fresh produce across 16 school locations (due April 14, 2026); and the GEC Buying Cooperative's SN 26-004 spanning 30 Georgia school districts with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending across fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026). The code shows sustained institutional demand but lacks sufficient recent opportunities specifically naming black diamond plums as a line item; buyers instead solicit broad fresh fruit categories where plum varieties are discretionary selections within larger produce tenders rather than standalone commodity buys.
