About UNSPSC 50311540

UNSPSC 50311540 Organic howgate wonder apples is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity. The source material describes this code as covering organic howgate wonder apples specifically, yet the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code—from Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, Douglas County School System, Austin Independent School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools, and Early County Board of Education—solicit bids and proposals for broad fresh produce categories, multiple apple varieties (Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith, Ambrosia, Honey Crisp, Jazz, and Gold/Red apples among others), bananas, berries, vegetables, eggs, and beverages. None of the posted opportunities explicitly name or restrict procurement to organic howgate wonder apples or organic produce exclusively. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being solicited suggests either a classification error in the state and local procurement systems or that this particular apple variety does not appear as a line item in current school nutrition and food service contracts.

State and local education agencies—primarily school districts and school boards across Georgia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida—dominate recent procurement activity, but they are buying comprehensive fresh produce assortments and institutional food service supplies rather than a single heirloom apple variety. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (due July 29, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including multiple apple varieties (due June 26, 2026); and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One (due March 4, 2026). The code does not reflect activity aligned with sourcing or distributing organic howgate wonder apples as a standalone product line or specialty agricultural commodity in state and local public procurement.
