UNSPSC 50311555: Organic mcintosh apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic mcintosh apples

UNSPSC 50311555 Organic mcintosh apples (Commodity) shows minimal relevant recent activity. The code nominally names a single apple variety, but state and local school nutrition programs soliciting under this code are actually buying comprehensive fresh-produce portfolios spanning dozens of fruit and vegetable line items, with organic apples appearing as one item among many—if at all. The recent-opportunities block contains no solicitation specifically for organic mcintosh apples. The one record naming apples at commodity detail (Madison Metropolitan School District RFB 4162, posted July 8, 2026) is actually a petite-banana procurement, not an apple solicitation, suggesting potential taxonomy misalignment in source tagging. When school districts do solicit fresh produce, they typically use higher-tier Family or Class codes that encompass fresh fruits broadly rather than a code fixed to a single organic variety.

State and local procurement activity under codes in this family centers on school nutrition programs—elementary and secondary districts predominantly, with occasional transit authorities or state-level food-service operations. The geographic spread covers Georgia (Hancock County, Bulloch County, Glynn County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County cooperative), Florida (Hillsborough County), Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD), and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan), though Georgia dominates the visible recent solicitations. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education IFB #SN002-2027 (posted June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026) for 200+ produce line items including multiple apple varieties for the 2026-27 school year, Bulloch County School District RFP for locally-grown produce (posted April 3, 2026, due May 4, 2026) spanning 24 items with apples among them, and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative (posted February 4, 2026, due March 4, 2026) covering fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million combined. None of these solicitations isolates organic mcintosh apples as a standalone procurement line; all are broader fresh-produce or institutional food-service buys where a specific apple variety competes on cost and quality within a much larger portfolio.
