UNSPSC 50312009: Organic marionberries

The variety of organic blackberries known as organic marionberries

UNSPSC 50312009 Organic marionberries is a Commodity code. State and local governments soliciting under this code are primarily school districts procuring fresh produce for child nutrition programs, but the recent opportunities show a marked mismatch between the code's specific scope—organic marionberries—and the actual work being bought. 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, Austin Independent School District, Douglas County School System, Early County Board of Education, and Hillsborough County Public Schools have all posted solicitations for fresh produce, but none of the recent opportunities explicitly specify organic marionberries as a line item. The code appears to capture a narrow commodity category that state and local procurement offices nominally use for classification, yet the actual buying activity under this code spans broad, general fresh-produce contracts that include dozens of fruit and vegetable varieties, prepared produce items, and eggs rather than single-berry procurement.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Georgia, with additional solicitations in Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin. Georgia school districts dominate the recent-opportunity record, including the Hancock County Board of Education (IFB due June 26, 2026, over 200 fresh-produce line items), Bulloch County School District (RFP due May 4, 2026, 24 produce items for farm-to-school program), Liberty County Board of Education (IFB due April 29, 2026, comprehensive produce and food offerings), Muscogee County School District (ITB due April 27, 2026, approximately 60 produce line items), and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (IFB due April 23, 2026, 72 fresh-produce items). Outside Georgia, McAllen Independent School District in Texas (RFP due March 6, 2026), Austin Independent School District in Texas (RFP due March 11, 2026), Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida (RFP due March 11, 2026), and Madison Metropolitan School District in Wisconsin (RFB due July 29, 2026) have posted produce solicitations. The code shows little relevant recent activity for organic marionberries specifically; the indexing of broad fresh-produce contracts to this commodity code suggests that state and local procurement systems may tag multi-item food-service RFPs and IFBs with commodity codes that do not reflect their actual scope.
