UNSPSC 50315602: Organic golden pineapple

The variety of organic pineapples known as organic golden pineapple

UNSPSC 50315602 Organic golden pineapple is a Commodity code that does not map cleanly to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source block. The code nominally specifies a single fresh fruit item, yet the recent opportunities solicited under this code encompass broad institutional food procurement—bananas, strawberries, mixed fresh produce, eggs, beverages, and multi-hundred-line-item food service contracts for school districts, transit authorities, and state agencies. The mismatch between the code's narrow definition and the scope of actual buying activity suggests either misclassification at the issuing-body level or significant scope drift in how state and local procurement offices tag produce and food-service contracts.

School districts in Georgia, Florida, Texas, and Wisconsin dominate the recent activity, with Liberty County Board of Education, Glynn County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System, Hillsborough County Public Schools, McAllen Independent School District, and Austin Independent School District posting RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs for fresh produce supply contracts valued between roughly $600,000 and $4.4 million annually. Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, with $78,000 estimated annual value), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across multiple fruit and vegetable categories (sealed bids due June 26, 2026), Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending (sealed proposals due March 4, 2026), and Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26039RFPDST for specialty fruits and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (proposals due March 11, 2026, with $600,000 estimated annual budget). Across all these solicitations, vendors must comply with Buy American provisions, maintain HACCP plans, carry $1 million to $2 million liability insurance, and submit to extensive federal and state certifications including debarment verification, E-Verify authorization, and food safety compliance. The activity is concentrated in the South (Georgia, Florida) and extends to the Midwest (Wisconsin) and Southwest (Texas), with no specific set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises identified across the representative opportunities.
