UNSPSC 50313660: Organic tocai friulano grapes

The variety of organic wine grapes known as organic tocai friulano grapes

UNSPSC 50313660 Organic tocai friulano grapes is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific wine grape variety, yet the recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows a substantial mismatch—no opportunities are solicited for organic tocai friulano grapes or any wine grapes at all. Instead, the opportunities tag a broad range of fresh produce procurement for school nutrition programs: bananas, apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and prepared produce items for elementary through high school student meals and snack programs. The code's abstract scope does not reflect the actual purchasing activity state and local buyers are conducting under it. School districts across Georgia, Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida dominate the recent posting volume, issuing RFBs, IFBs, and RFPs for annual contracts to supply fresh fruits and vegetables to centralized nutrition departments and multiple school sites, typically with weekly or twice-weekly delivery requirements and contract terms running July through June aligned to school fiscal years.

The recent opportunities span established school districts—Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Bartow County School System (Georgia), Early County Board of Education (Georgia), Bulloch County School District (Georgia), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Muscogee County School District (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Glynn County Board of Education (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia cooperative procurement on behalf of 30 districts), McAllen Independent School District (Texas), and Austin Independent School District (Texas)—with estimated annual contract values ranging from $78,000 (Madison petite bananas alone) to $4.4 million (Douglas County Area One fresh produce and eggs cooperative). Most solicitations emphasize USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program compliance, Buy American domestic sourcing requirements, HACCP food safety plans, delivery logistics to multiple sites, and preference for local or regional producers where cost and quality are comparable. The geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia, with secondary activity in Texas, Wisconsin, and Florida. This code should be treated as a misclassification or system-wide tagging anomaly rather than a focused procurement category for wine grapes.
