UNSPSC 50312405: Organic jete cherimoya

The variety of organic cherimoya known as organic jete cherimoya

UNSPSC 50312405 Organic jete cherimoya is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual procurement activity state and local governments are conducting under this classification. Recent state and local solicitations tagged with this code are soliciting fresh produce for school nutrition programs, but the opportunities involve common produce staples such as bananas, apples, carrots, broccoli, peppers, tomatoes, berries, leafy greens, citrus fruits, and eggs—not the specialized tropical fruit (jete cherimoya) that the code nominally describes. The mismatch between the code's name and the scope of actual solicitations suggests misclassification in the state and local procurement systems posting these opportunities.

School districts across Georgia, Texas, and Florida dominate recent activity under this code, with the majority of opportunities issued by independent school districts and county boards of education purchasing fresh produce for National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs serving elementary through high school populations. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, with estimated annual value of $78,000), Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26039RFPDST for specialty fruits and vegetables for the Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program serving approximately 18 elementary schools (due March 11, 2026, with estimated annual budget of $600,000), 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, with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two), and Liberty County Board of Education's IFB for produce and food products (due April 29, 2026). Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, with additional activity in Texas (Austin ISD, McAllen ISD) and Florida (Hillsborough County). Most opportunities are issued as IFBs or RFPs with sealed bid submission, require HACCP plans and food safety certifications, mandate Buy American compliance, and evaluate vendors on cost (typically 30–50%), quality, delivery reliability, and past performance.
