UNSPSC 50311533: Organic golden delicious apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic golden delicious apples

UNSPSC 50311533 Organic golden delicious apples, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent alignment between the code's nominal scope and the actual work state and local governments are soliciting under it. The recent opportunities block identifies one produce-related solicitation that names apples among dozens of line items—Hancock County Board of Education's fresh produce procurement for the 2026-27 school year—but the vast majority of tagged opportunities cover bananas, mixed fresh produce, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, and comprehensive school nutrition program food sourcing that spans meats, dairy, grains, and beverages rather than organic golden delicious apples specifically. The code does not appear to capture dedicated single-commodity apple procurements at the state and local level; instead, apples are embedded in broader institutional food service contracts where they compete on price and availability alongside multiple produce categories.

State and local school districts in Georgia, Texas, and Florida dominate recent activity under this code designation, with the most recent opportunities posted between February and July 2026. Representative procurements include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (multiple apple varieties specified, due June 26, 2026), Muscogee County School District's ITB 26-017 for produce items (estimated annual quantities of 1,500 cases for sliced apples, due April 27, 2026), and Glynn County Board of Education's IFB 27-02 for fresh produce (approximately 60 line items including 750–1,100 cases of red and gold apples, due April 14, 2026). Pricing in these contracts is typically indexed to USDA wholesale market reports or quoted as a fixed markup above index prices; delivery is weekly to multiple school sites; and Buy American provisions and HACCP compliance are standard. The code signal appears weak for vendors pursuing dedicated organic apple supply—the recent opportunities reflect institutional food service bundling rather than segmented organic commodity procurement.
