UNSPSC 50313609: Organic centurian grapes

The variety of organic wine grapes known as organic centurian grapes

UNSPSC 50313609 Organic centurian grapes, a Commodity code, covers fresh produce items that state and local governments buy for school nutrition programs, parks and recreation food services, and healthcare facility operations. The recent solicitations show school districts and county park systems procuring fresh fruits and vegetables—including apples, berries, citrus, leafy greens, and specialty items—for student meal programs, concession operations, and institutional food service. Work under this code includes vendor proposals for fresh-produce supply, delivery scheduling, quality assurance, traceability documentation, food-safety compliance (HACCP plans), and pricing structures that often reflect seasonal availability, sourcing preferences (domestic and local), and organic premiums.

School districts dominate issuing activity under this code, with Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Early County Board of Education, and Bartow County School System posting multiple recent solicitations. County park systems (Collier County), healthcare coalitions (Marion Health Care Coalition), and state procurement offices (State of Georgia) also solicit produce. Geographic activity clusters in Georgia and Wisconsin, with recent IFBs, RFBs, and RFPs from Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Bartow County Schools (Georgia), Early County Schools (Georgia), Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), and Collier County (Florida). Madison Metropolitan School District issued separate bids for petite bananas (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks (RFB 4163, due July 29, 2026, $0.20 per pound organic preference discount applied). Hancock County Board of Education requested bids on 200+ fresh-produce line items for the 2026-27 school year (IFB, due June 26, 2026, delivery to three schools). Bartow County School System sought local fresh fruits and vegetables sourced within 400 miles (RFP 10-2026-019, proposal deadline June 22, 2026). Evaluation criteria across these opportunities weight cost heavily (30–40%), with secondary emphasis on sourcing compliance, local or organic preference, traceability, and vendor qualifications. Many solicitations impose local-source requirements (400-mile radius, state-of-origin filters) and organic premiums in price comparison.
