UNSPSC 50312506: Organic black schmidt cherries

The variety of organic cherries known as organic black schmidt cherries

UNSPSC 50312506 Organic black schmidt cherries is a Commodity code covering fresh organic cherry procurement by state and local public bodies. State and local governments buy organic cherries primarily through school district food service programs, county park concession operations, and institutional food vendors serving education and recreation. The code captures single-item produce procurements tied to school nutrition programs, farmer-sourced local fruit contracts, and institutional food supply chains where organic certification and product freshness are contractual requirements. Issuing bodies include school districts (Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Early County Board of Education) operating child nutrition programs under USDA-sponsored meals; county park and recreation departments managing concession food service; and health care or institutional food coalitions. School districts represent the most active segment, issuing regular RFBs and RFPs for produce items as part of annual food service bidding cycles that run concurrent with school fiscal-year procurement windows.
