UNSPSC 50311619: Organic goldbar apricots

The variety of organic apricots known as organic goldbar apricots

UNSPSC 50311619 Organic goldbar apricots is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single fresh fruit product, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under this code show little activity specifically aligned with organic apricots. Instead, the posted solicitations center on comprehensive fresh produce procurement—including apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, and other fruit varieties—for school nutrition programs across multiple states. The mismatch between the code's narrow product name and the broad scope of the opportunities suggests this code may be used as a catch-all tag for fresh fruit procurement rather than a precise classifier for organic apricots alone. State and local buyers using this code include school districts (both independent districts and county boards of education), a state purchasing office, and cooperative purchasing vehicles serving multi-district consortia. School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with solicitations supporting National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, and federally funded Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs (FFVP).

Recent procurement activity concentrates in Georgia, with multiple school districts issuing bids and RFPs between February and July 2026, and activity also posted from Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin. Representative recent opportunities include the Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000), the Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (due June 26, 2026), the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs across 30 districts (due March 4, 2026, estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One), and the Austin Independent School District's RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and beverages (due March 11, 2026). Solicitation types include RFPs, RFBs, IFBs, and ITBs, with response dates typically 30–60 days from posting. Most contracts run July 1 through June 30 annually, with renewal options extending up to five years. Buy American provisions and HACCP plan requirements appear standard across opportunities, and several districts apply geographic or local-sourcing preferences.
