UNSPSC 50312205: Organic toro blueberries

The variety of organic blueberries known as organic toro blueberries

UNSPSC 50312205 Organic toro blueberries — a Commodity code — does not align with the recent state and local solicitation activity tracked under this classification. The code names a specific fresh produce item (organic toro blueberries), yet the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for organic blueberries or any organic-designated fresh fruit; instead, the opportunities reflect conventional fresh produce procurement across multiple categories and jurisdictions.

State and local governments soliciting under codes tagged 50312205 are actually buying broad fresh produce portfolios — bananas, apples, berries (blackberry, pineberry, raspberry, strawberry), broccoli, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, citrus, and dozens of other items — through school nutrition programs, typically in bulk quantities for National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program service. Issuing bodies include independent school districts and county boards of education across Georgia (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn County, Douglas County), Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD), and Florida (Hillsborough County). These buyers solicited RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs with response deadlines spanning February through July 2026, with contract values ranging from under $100,000 (Madison Metropolitan's petite bananas at $78,000 annually) to $4.4 million (Douglas County multi-district cooperative for Area One). Solicitations emphasize Buy American provisions, HACCP compliance, 98 percent fill-rate requirements, weekly or twice-weekly delivery windows, and competitive evaluation based on price (typically 30–50 percent weighting), vendor qualifications, product quality, and local/minority-business status preferences. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia school districts, with secondary activity in Texas and Florida.
