UNSPSC 50311584: Organic stayman apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic stayman apples

UNSPSC 50311584 Organic stayman apples is a Commodity code that encompasses fresh produce procurement by state and local agencies, particularly school districts, county parks and recreation departments, and healthcare coalitions. The recent solicitations show that state and local governments are buying fresh produce — including apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, and mixed fruit-and-vegetable items — for school nutrition programs, parks concessions, and healthcare facility food service operations. The work ranges from standalone commodity buys (petite bananas, organic apples) to comprehensive produce contracts spanning 200+ line items of mixed fresh fruits and vegetables. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, and Early County Board of Education all soliciting produce in the past five months. County and municipal agencies also appear — Collier County Board of County Commissioners procured food services for regional parks, and Marion Health Care Coalition sought produce vendors for the 2026-2027 period. Vendors must meet food safety compliance, HACCP planning, traceability documentation, delivery scheduling, and temperature-control requirements; school districts frequently apply domestic-sourcing preferences, organic-produce price discounts, and local-vendor preference scoring.

The code shows active procurement across Georgia and Wisconsin, with additional activity in Florida and broader state-level solicitation by Georgia. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (70–90 cases weekly, $78,000 estimated annual value, bids due July 29, 2026), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items with multiple apple varieties and delivery to three school locations (bids due June 26, 2026), Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (proposal deadline June 22, 2026, contract term July 20, 2026 through June 30, 2027 plus four one-year renewal options), and Collier County Board of County Commissioners' ITN for food services at North Collier Regional Park with proposals due March 6, 2025 and a local-vendor preference worth 10 evaluation points. Marion Health Care Coalition's produce procurement (proposals due August 21, 2026) and State of Georgia's broader food, supplies, and kitchen products bid (due June 22, 2026) demonstrate that the code activity extends beyond school districts to healthcare and state-level buyers.
