UNSPSC 50312521: Organic sonata cherries

The variety of organic cherries known as organic sonata cherries

UNSPSC 50312521 Organic sonata cherries (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity recorded under this code. The most recent opportunities posted against the code span fresh produce sourcing for school nutrition programs—bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and mixed fruit and vegetable assortments—but they contain no solicitations for organic sonata cherries specifically or any specialty cherry varieties. School districts and county boards of education across Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin are the primary issuing bodies, with Madison Metropolitan School District, Douglas County Schools, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Hancock County Board of Education, and Glynn County Board of Education among recent repeat buyers. The code shows no active commercial market signal for organic sonata cherries at the state and local level; current procurement focus centers on institutional fresh-produce supply agreements supporting USDA National School Lunch and Breakfast Programs, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs, and farm-to-school initiatives.

Representative recent solicitations include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026) and RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (due July 29, 2026); Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including apples, berries, and melons (sealed bids due June 26, 2026); and Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million combined (sealed proposals due March 4, 2026). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with secondary activity in Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin. Vendors pursuing institutional fresh-produce supply contracts should note that school districts apply strict specifications including Buy American provisions, HACCP plans, traceability documentation, food safety certifications, liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2 million, and weekly delivery to multiple school sites; cost-plus pricing models are common, and geographic preference for locally sourced produce within 200–400 miles is increasingly standard. No procurement activity under this code supports a business development focus on organic sonata cherries at the state and local level.
