UNSPSC 50313700: Organic guavas

The type of organic fruit known as organic guavas

UNSPSC 50313700 Organic guavas, a Class code, nominally names a single produce commodity, but recent state and local solicitations under this code do not reflect that specificity. Instead, school districts and state agencies are soliciting fresh produce procurement covering dozens of line items—apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, citrus, peppers, tomatoes, and eggs—through RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs with response dates ranging from June through August 2026. The actual work being bought is broad-spectrum fresh produce supply and delivery to school nutrition programs, often with requirements for USDA compliance, HACCP plans, traceability documentation, Buy American certification, domestic sourcing preferences, and compliance with school meal nutritional standards. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix—Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bartow County School System, Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, and Salt Lake City School District all posted opportunities in the recent window. A state agency (Georgia) and a cooperative purchasing vehicle (GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 Georgia districts) also appear. Geographic concentration is heavy in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Wisconsin, Utah, and Florida.

Representative recent opportunities illustrate the scope: Madison Metropolitan School District issued RFB 4162 (due July 29, 2026) for petite bananas at $78,000 annual value, with 70-90 cases weekly usage and strict ripeness and temperature specifications; the same district issued RFB 4163 (due July 29, 2026) for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks serving 5,900 servings weekly under the USDA Fresh Fruit & Vegetable Program, with a $0.20-per-pound organic preference discount and Wisconsin-sourced locational requirement. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026) for over 200 fresh produce line items across multiple apple varieties, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, and specialty produce for three school locations, with a July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 contract term and 51-percent domestic agricultural content Buy American floor. Douglas County School System, through the GEC Buying Cooperative, issued RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) covering approximately 72 produce and egg line items for 30 districts across two Georgia areas, estimated at $4.4 million (Area One) and $1.1 million (Area Two) annually, with cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing capped at USDA Atlanta Terminal Wholesale Market Report maximums. The code shows active, sustained procurement activity driven by school lunch and breakfast program demand and federal fresh fruit and vegetable program requirements.
