UNSPSC 50307022: Mombins

The type of fruit known as mombins

UNSPSC 50307022 Mombins, a Commodity code, describes fresh fruit supply to institutional and school food service operations — primarily bananas and other fresh produce delivered under standing contracts to correctional facilities, mental health centers, schools, senior centers, and child nutrition programs. State and local governments procure under this code through a mix of issuing bodies: state departments of corrections and mental health, county and municipal school districts, city human services divisions, and regional health care and senior services organizations. The work spans weekly or bi-weekly deliveries of specified produce quantities meeting USDA or program-specific quality standards, often with temperature and freshness requirements, compliance with food safety regulations, and pricing structured as fixed unit rates or cost-plus-fee models. Issuing bodies commonly embed Buy American provisions, require HACCP plans, mandate liability and workers' compensation insurance, and apply prevailing wage or local-vendor preferences where state law permits.
