UNSPSC 50305902: Granada pommegranates

The variety of pommegranates known as granada pommegranates

UNSPSC 50305902 Granada pomegranates is a Commodity code that state and local governments are currently not procuring through standard contract vehicles. The source contains no recent state or local RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITN solicitations for granada pomegranates specifically. Instead, the recent opportunities tagged to this code reflect broader fresh produce and food service procurement activity — institutional food supply contracts, school nutrition programs, senior center produce distribution, child care facility meal service, and correctional and mental health facility food supply. The mismatch between the code's narrow commodity definition (granada pomegranates alone) and the actual scope of posted solicitations suggests that state and local procurement systems are classifying general fresh produce purchases under this code rather than reserving it for a distinct product line.

The actual procurement activity visible in the source spans multiple issuing bodies — the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), Illinois Department of Corrections, Illinois Department of Mental Health, multiple Georgia school districts (Dougherty County, Hancock County, Bryan County, Early County, Bartow County), Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin, Collier County in Florida, the City of Bridgeport in Connecticut, Head Start of Greater Dallas, DeSoto County School District in Mississippi, the City of San Antonio, the City of Edinburg in Texas, and the Marion Health Care Coalition. The geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia (at least six school district solicitations) and Texas (TDCJ, Head Start Dallas, Edinburg, San Antonio), with additional activity in Wisconsin, Florida, Connecticut, Mississippi, and Illinois. Recent opportunities include DeSoto County School District (fresh produce distribution across 41 school sites, bids due June 22, 2026, IFB), Madison Metropolitan School District petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, estimated contract value $78,000 annually, RFB 4162, bids due July 29, 2026), and the Illinois Department of Mental Health's Madden Mental Health Center (weekly fresh fruits and vegetables delivery, approximately 39 line items, small purchase procurement, proposals due August 14, 2026). If pursuing this code, focus on institutional food service contracts with school districts, state departments of corrections, and mental health facilities rather than retail pomegranate supply.
