UNSPSC 50312508: Organic fiesta bing cherries

The variety of organic cherries known as organic fiesta bing cherries

UNSPSC 50312508 Organic fiesta bing cherries is a Commodity code that describes a single produce item; however, the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code shows no actual solicitations for organic fiesta bing cherries or any specialty cherry variety. Instead, the five most recent opportunities solicited under the code track fresh produce procurement at the school district level across Georgia and Texas, with scope spanning comprehensive fruit and vegetable supply contracts for child nutrition and school breakfast and lunch programs. Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) issued RFB 4162 on July 8, 2026, for petite bananas (response due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison (also July 29, 2026), while Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) released IFB SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for over 200 fresh produce line items spanning apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, and leafy greens (bids due June 26, 2026). The code shows persistent mismatch between its nominal definition and actual procurement activity — the opportunities are general fresh produce contracts, not organic specialty cherries.

School districts and county boards of education dominate the issuing bodies across Georgia, Texas, and Wisconsin, with recent geographic concentration in Georgia (Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, and Douglas County cooperatives) alongside activity in Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan), Florida (Hillsborough County), and Texas (McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District). Representative opportunities include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative covering 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (sealed proposals due March 4, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's Bid 26-34 for 72 fresh produce items across 60 schools (sealed bids due April 23, 2026), and Bulloch County School District's IFP for 24 locally-grown produce items within 200 miles supporting its Farm to School program for approximately 11,200 students across 14 schools (proposals due May 4, 2026). The code's nominal scope and recent procurement activity are substantially misaligned, making the code itself a weak signal for business development targeting specialty organic cherry supply chains.
