UNSPSC 50305824: Early rosa plums

The variety of plums known as early rosa plums

UNSPSC 50305824 Early rosa plums is a Commodity code that names a specific fresh fruit product, yet state and local governments do not source early rosa plums as a standalone line item in recent solicitations. Instead, procurement activity under this code falls within broader fresh-produce contracts serving school nutrition programs, child and adult care food programs, and institutional food services. Recent opportunities show governments purchasing fresh fruits and vegetables as mixed categories—apples, bananas, berries, citrus, melons, and other varieties—rather than targeting individual plum cultivars. The City of Edinburg, Texas (RFP 2026017, due August 4, 2026) solicits food products for a Child and Adult Care Food Program covering beverages, paper goods, proteins, and mixed produce items. Similarly, school districts across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Connecticut issue RFPs and ITBs for comprehensive fresh-produce contracts bundling dozens of fruit and vegetable line items with specific case quantities, delivery frequencies, and quality standards.

Issuing bodies pursuing fresh-produce procurement are predominantly school nutrition departments and child-care food programs within independent school districts, county boards of education, and city/county children's services divisions. Recent repeat buyers include Bulloch County Schools, Glynn County Schools, and Hancock County Schools in Georgia; Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin; and Austin ISD in Texas. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (multiple county and district school nutrition programs), Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, City of Edinburg), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools). The City of San Antonio and Head Start of Greater Dallas also solicit produce distribution services. Representative opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District Food & Nutrition (RFB 4162 for petite bananas, due July 29, 2026; RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks with 5,900 weekly servings, due July 29); Bartow County School System in Georgia (RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles, due June 22); and Muscogee County School District (ITB 26-017 for approximately 60 fresh-produce line items, due April 27). The code shows no isolated demand for early rosa plums but rather reflects institutional dependence on mixed fresh-produce supply contracts where individual fruit varieties compete within broader procurement categories defined by case size, ripeness stage, delivery schedule, and nutrition compliance.
