UNSPSC 50317102: Organic brillantisima chokeberries

The variety of organic chokeberries known as organic brillantisima chokeberries

UNSPSC 50317102 Organic brillantisima chokeberries (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local school nutrition procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific produce variety, but the recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for organic chokeberries or any chokeberry products; instead, school districts across Georgia, Texas, and Florida are actively procuring broad categories of fresh produce—apples, bananas, berries, vegetables, and prepared items—to support child nutrition programs. The mismatch between the code's narrow scope and the diversity of produce actually being purchased suggests this Commodity code sees little or no relevant recent activity in state and local procurement.

School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with twelve of the sixteen recent opportunities from Georgia school systems (Madison Metropolitan, Hancock County, Bartow County, Bulloch County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Glynn County, and Douglas County via the GEC cooperative), two from Texas independent school districts (McAllen and Austin), one from Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida, and one from the State of Georgia. Representative recent procurements include Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4162 for petite bananas (due July 29, 2026, estimated annual value $78,000), Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across multiple categories (bids due June 26, 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP through the GEC cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two. Georgia and Texas account for the heaviest recent activity; Florida and additional states appear in the long tail. School nutrition contracting emphasizes firm fixed pricing, HACCP compliance, Buy American preferences, domestic sourcing within 400 miles where required, and award to lowest responsive and responsible bidders, often with line-item flexibility to accommodate multiple vendors.
