UNSPSC 50305837: Hiromi plums

The variety of plums known as hiromi plums

UNSPSC 50305837 Hiromi plums, a Commodity code, covers fresh fruit procurement by state and local governments, though recent activity shows the code is tagged primarily to broad produce and grocery solicitations rather than single-variety fruit purchases. State and local buyers use this code as part of larger food-service contracts spanning fresh produce, produce ingredients, and related supplies. Issuing bodies include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bryan County Schools, Dougherty County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education), state correctional and mental health facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health), county governments and regional authorities (Collier County Board of County Commissioners), cities (Bridgeport, Edinburg, San Antonio), and health care coalitions and Head Start organizations. School nutrition programs dominate the recent procurement activity, purchasing produce for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program compliance; corrections and mental health facilities procure fresh vegetables and fruits for inmate and patient dining; and cities and counties source produce for senior services, child care food programs, and regional parks.

Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Illinois, Florida, Wisconsin, Connecticut, and Mississippi, with recent solicitations spanning October 2026 back through April 2026. Representative opportunities include the Texas Department of Criminal Justice requesting fresh fruit and vegetable deliveries to correctional facilities at Palestine and Snyder (Solicitation IW267376 and IW267420, due October 19 and October 14, 2026, respectively); Madison Metropolitan School District issuing an RFB for petite bananas at $78,000 annual contract value, 70–90 cases weekly (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia soliciting over 200 fresh produce line items for the 2026–27 school year (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); DeSoto County School District in Mississippi requesting fresh produce distribution across 41 school sites on cost-plus-fee terms with 97% service-level requirements (due June 22, 2026); and the Illinois Department of Corrections seeking bi-weekly produce deliveries to Joliet Treatment Center under a small business set-aside (due September 3, 2026). Contracts typically run one year with renewal options, require F.O.B. Destination pricing with no fuel surcharges, mandate HACCP plans and food-safety compliance, and emphasize domestic sourcing and Buy American provisions where applicable.
