UNSPSC 50311548: Organic katy apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic katy apples

UNSPSC 50311548 Organic katy apples (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code. The recent opportunities posted under 50311548 are for petite bananas, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, comprehensive produce assortments, fresh produce for school nutrition programs, and local farm produce — none of which specifically target organic katy apples. The code's nominal scope (a discrete commodity) does not match the actual purchasing pattern, which emphasizes broad fresh-produce procurement across multiple fruit and vegetable categories.

State and local governments buying under this code designation are exclusively school districts and school nutrition departments, primarily in Georgia and Texas, with representation from Wisconsin, Florida, and Arizona. Recent solicitations span school districts of varying size, from Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) and Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida) to smaller county systems such as Glynn County (Georgia), Liberty County (Georgia), and Bulloch County (Georgia). Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026), Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26039RFPDST for fresh fruit and vegetable program delivery (proposals due March 11, 2026), Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs via GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 districts (due March 4, 2026 with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million across both geographic areas), and Muscogee County School District's ITB 26-017 for produce items (due April 27, 2026). Most solicitations are issued as RFB, RFP, or ITB with annual contract terms running July 1 through June 30, emphasizing Buy American compliance, HACCP plans, traceability, liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2 million, and delivery to multiple school sites. The code sees no relevant activity matching organic katy apples specifically.
