UNSPSC 50315849: Organic lone star red plums

The variety of organic plums known as organic lone star red plums

UNSPSC 50315849 Organic lone star red plums is a Commodity code that nominally names a single produce item but diverges sharply from what state and local governments are actually procuring under this classification. Recent solicitations tagged with this code show school districts and education agencies soliciting fresh produce contracts that span dozens of fruit and vegetable line items—apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, peppers, tomatoes, leafy greens, potatoes, citrus, melons, and prepared produce items—rather than lone star red plums specifically. School nutrition programs dominate the issuing-body mix: Madison Metropolitan School District, Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Glynn County Board of Education, and Douglas County School System all issued RFPs, RFQs, IFBs, and ITBs for multi-item fresh produce contracts during the first half of 2026. Early County Board of Education, Hillsborough County Public Schools, McAllen Independent School District, and Austin Independent School District also solicited. A state-level buy—Georgia's general food, supplies, and kitchen products procurement (PE55645NONST2026000000009)—also carries this code but lacks detail in the summary block.

Geographic concentration is heavily weighted to Georgia and Texas school systems. Recent activity clusters in Georgia (Hancock, Bulloch, Liberty, Muscogee, Savannah-Chatham, Glynn, and Douglas Counties, plus the State of Georgia), with secondary activity in Florida (Hillsborough County), Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD), and Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan). Representative opportunities include Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for 30 school districts across two areas, with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two, proposals due March 4, 2026; Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP 26039RFQDST for USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program specialty produce delivery to 18 elementary schools with estimated annual budget of $600,000, proposals due March 11, 2026; and Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas, bids due July 29, 2026, estimated annual contract value $78,000. The code shows active, repetitive procurement activity across multiple states, but for broad produce categories rather than the specific commodity the code nominally identifies.
