UNSPSC 50315864: Organic red lane plums

The variety of organic plums known as organic red lane plums

UNSPSC 50315864 Organic red lane plums (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The single recent opportunity directly matching the code—a request for petite bananas by Madison Metropolitan School District (RFB 4162, due July 29, 2026)—represents fresh fruit procurement for school nutrition programs rather than organic red lane plums specifically. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix across the recent opportunities block, with 14 of 16 solicitations sourced by public school systems in Georgia, Texas, Florida, and Wisconsin; the remaining two are a state agency (Georgia) and a transit or municipal entity (neither explicitly named). Representative recent work includes fresh produce supply contracts spanning apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables, and citrus for National School Lunch Program and USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program service; most districts issue RFBs or RFPs with response windows of two to four weeks and annual contract values ranging from $78,000 (Madison Metropolitan) to approximately $4.4 million (Douglas County School System serving 30 districts through the GEC Buying Cooperative). Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (11 school districts plus the state agency and at least one multi-district cooperative), with secondary activity in Wisconsin, Texas, and Florida.

The code itself does not align with recent procurement patterns in the block. The opportunities show school districts and the state agency buying fresh produce broadly—not organic red lane plums as a targeted commodity—with emphasis on USDA compliance, Buy American provisions (domestic sourcing where 51 percent of processed foods are U.S. agricultural commodities), HACCP certification, GAP certification where applicable, liability insurance ($500,000 to $2 million minimums), and delivery to multiple school sites within strict time windows (typically early morning, 5:00 a.m. to 7:30 a.m. start times). Few solicitations specify organic produce; Hillsborough County Public Schools (RFP 26039RFPDST, due March 11, 2026) requests fresh specialty fruits and vegetables for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program without organic certification requirements, and Austin Independent School District (RFP 26RFP034, due March 11, 2026) emphasizes sustainable and humane production practices through the Good Food Purchasing Program rather than organic certification. If pursuing this code, target school district nutrition departments, cooperative purchasing vehicles like the GEC, and state food service procurement in Georgia and neighboring states; focus on volume supply contracts with firm annual pricing, multi-location delivery capability, and food safety documentation.
