UNSPSC 50317034: Organic sorb berries

The type of organic fruit known as organic sorb berries

UNSPSC 50317034 Organic sorb berries (Commodity) sees no recent activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The source identifies one opportunity posted to this code—Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas due July 29, 2026—which explicitly purchases bananas rather than organic sorb berries. A second MMSD opportunity, RFB 4163, covers fresh fruit and vegetable snacks more broadly but emphasizes conventional and organic produce sourcing, not the sorb berry category. The remaining opportunities in the block span multiple school districts and jurisdictions procuring staple fresh produce (apples, bananas, berries, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, carrots, onions, eggs) and comprehensive food service items under standing annual contracts, cooperative purchasing vehicles, and RFPs, none of which reference sorb berries or niche berry categories.

The geographic spread across recent opportunities extends from Wisconsin (Madison Metropolitan School District) and Utah (Salt Lake City School District) to Georgia (multiple county boards of education in Hancock, Bulloch, Liberty, Muscogee, Glynn, and Douglas Counties), Texas (McAllen Independent School District and Austin Independent School District), and Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools). School districts and county boards of education dominate the issuing bodies, with cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative) supporting multi-district procurement. The code shows material recent activity in school nutrition procurement overall, but the activity is concentrated in mainstream produce categories, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program fulfillment, and farm-to-school initiatives emphasizing domestic and local sourcing—not specialty or organic sorb berries. Unless sorb berries appear in the underlying bid tables or appendices referenced but not reproduced in the source, this code warrants skipping or watch status pending clarification of actual purchasing patterns.
