UNSPSC 50403243: Peaches and cream corn

The variety of corn known as peaches & cream corn

UNSPSC 50403243 Peaches and cream corn, a Commodity code, represents fresh produce supply contracts that state and local governments solicit for institutional food service operations—primarily state-supported living centers, correctional facilities, school districts, and mental health centers. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local buyers purchasing fresh produce and prepared foods for cafeteria, canteen, and meal-service operations, often bundled with food service supplies and disposable serviceware. The issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions (Texas, Illinois), departments of criminal justice (Texas, Illinois), school districts (Madison Metropolitan, Bartow County, Bryan County, Dougherty County, Early County), and county boards of education across Georgia, as well as county parks and recreation departments (Collier County, Florida) and specialized food service contractors supporting senior centers and Head Start programs. These buyers source produce across multiple channels—direct commodity purchasing, cooperative agreements, and franchise food service operations—with contracts typically running 12 months with renewal options.

Recent activity concentrates heavily in Texas and Georgia, with secondary posting in Illinois and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0018082 (Lufkin State Supported Living Center consumables, due October 23, 2026, covering 22 food and supply line items), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's multiple fresh-fruit-and-vegetable RFP responses for food warehouses at Palestine and Snyder (due October 19 and October 14, 2026 respectively), the Illinois Department of Mental Health's small-purchase RFP for fresh fruits and vegetables at Madden Mental Health Center (due August 14, 2026, approximately 39 line items weekly), the Madison Metropolitan School District's RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Wisconsin (due July 29, 2026, approximately 5,900 servings weekly for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program), Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables within 400 miles (due June 22, 2026, July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract term with four one-year renewal options), and Dougherty County Board of Education's sealed-bid procurement for fresh produce across 24 school nutrition sites (due June 16, 2026, 40 produce line items). Institutional buyers emphasize compliance with food safety and USDA standards, F.O.B. Destination pricing with prepaid freight, bi-weekly to weekly delivery schedules, and documented product traceability; school districts increasingly impose local-sourcing and regional-distance preferences (often 400 miles) and award weight to organic certification and diverse-business status.
