UNSPSC 50307008: Coconuts

The drupaceous fruit of the coconut palm whose outer fibrous husk yields coir and whose nut contains thick edible meat and coconut milk

UNSPSC 50307008 Coconuts (Commodity) sees minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally covers coconut products, but the recent opportunities block does not include any solicitations for coconuts per se. Instead, state and local food service procurement under tags nearby in the taxonomy—fresh produce, fresh fruits and vegetables, and comprehensive grocery procurement for school nutrition, child care, and corrections facilities—dominates the recent activity window (January through July 2026). The mismatch signals that coconuts as a standalone line item do not appear to be actively procured by state or local agencies through this specific code, or are bundled within broader produce or grocery categories that carry different UNSPSC assignments.

Recent opportunities in the adjacent produce and grocery space show sustained demand from school districts, child nutrition programs, and county corrections facilities across Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Oregon, Utah, and Florida, with contracts valued from under $100,000 to over $3 million and employing RFP, RFB, and IFB notice types. However, coconut procurement itself is not represented in the posted opportunities. A vendor pursuing coconut supply to state and local entities would be better served identifying and monitoring solicitations tagged to broader commodity codes (such as fresh fruits and vegetables or general grocery items) rather than monitoring this code directly, or confirming with target agencies whether coconut products are specified as line items within multi-category food service bids.
