UNSPSC 50305856: Perdrigon plum

The variety of plums known as perdrigon plum

UNSPSC 50305856 Perdrigon plum, a Commodity code, does not reflect the work state and local governments are actually buying under this designation. The recent opportunities tagged to this code are overwhelmingly school nutrition and child care food service solicitations for fresh produce, beverages, grocery staples, and supplies—not perdrigon plums specifically. School districts, county boards of education, cities operating child nutrition programs, and cooperative purchasing consortia are requesting fresh fruits and vegetables, eggs, dried fruits, nuts, and comprehensive food service supplies to support National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, Child and Adult Care Food Programs, and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs. The scope spans full-line grocery bidding (over 1,100 line items in some cases), specialty produce targeting farm-to-school initiatives, and cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangements for commodity-indexed pricing. Issuing bodies include individual school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Austin ISD, Hillsborough County Schools, Bulloch County, Henry County, Liberty County, Glynn County, Savannah-Chatham County, McAllen ISD, Central Point School District), county boards of education across multiple states, city purchasing departments on behalf of school systems (Meriden, Bridgeport), Head Start providers, and regional cooperative purchasing consortia (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30+ Georgia districts). The code shows no meaningful activity specific to perdrigon plums; tagging appears to be either a data entry error or a legacy classification mismatch.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities is heavily concentrated in Georgia (Bryan County, Dougherty County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Glynn County, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County, Bartow County, Douglas County cooperative), with secondary activity in Texas (City of Edinburg CACFP, McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, Head Start of Greater Dallas), Florida (Hillsborough County), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools, Bridgeport), Mississippi (DeSoto County), Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District), Oregon (Central Point School District), and California (Santa Clara County). Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas due July 29, 2026, Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) IFB for fresh produce due June 26, 2026, Bulloch County School District's IFP for locally-grown produce due May 4, 2026, Austin ISD RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and beverages due March 11, 2026, and the GEC Buying Cooperative's SN 26-004 RFP for fresh produce and eggs due March 4, 2026, serving 30 school districts across two Georgia geographic areas with estimated combined annual spending of $5.5 million. Buy American provisions and domestic sourcing preferences appear consistently across solicitations, with local-vendor and geographic-preference programs active in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. Set-asides for minority-owned, woman-owned, and small businesses are present in select opportunities but are not universal.
