UNSPSC 50403243: Peaches and cream corn

The variety of corn known as peaches & cream corn

UNSPSC 50403243 Peaches and cream corn, a Commodity code, encompasses ready-to-eat fresh produce snacks and prepared vegetables that state and local governments procure for school nutrition, child care, and institutional food service programs—work typically involving cleaned, processed, and packaged produce delivered in portion-controlled quantities with traceability documentation and cold-chain logistics. School districts and child nutrition authorities dominate the issuing body mix, with repeat activity from state departments of criminal justice, city and county school boards across Georgia, Texas, Florida, Missouri, and Connecticut, and regional Head Start organizations. Recent solicitations span institution-specific RFQs and IFBs; the Madison Metropolitan School District sought fresh fruit and vegetable snacks for elementary students under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with weekly 5,900-serving volumes and a local-sourcing requirement within 400 miles of Madison, while Head Start of Greater Dallas procured 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat products under Child and Adult Care Food Program standards, and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa requested fresh, pre-cut, pre-packaged specialty fruits and vegetables for 18 elementary schools participating in the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, with cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing and GAP certification mandatory.

The code shows concentrated activity in Georgia school districts (Bartow County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Henry County, Savannah-Chatham County, and the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 districts), Texas education and criminal justice procurement (Northside Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, McAllen Independent School District, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and Florida and Connecticut school systems. Recent opportunities include Bartow County School System's RFP 10-2026-019 for local fresh fruits and vegetables with June 22, 2026 response deadline and scoring weighted toward cost, seasonal variety, ordering proficiency, and product quality; Dougherty County Board of Education's sealed bid for fresh produce with 40 line items and June 16, 2026 submission (questions by May 29); Glynn County Board of Education IFB 27-02 for 60 fresh produce line items across 16 school sites with April 14, 2026 response deadline; and the Douglas County School System GEC Buying Cooperative RFP covering 30 districts in two geographic areas with $4.4 million and $1.1 million estimated annual spending and March 4, 2026 proposal deadline. Contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 aligned to school fiscal years, with competitive evaluation favoring cost, product quality, compliance with USDA Buy American standards, HACCP certification, and delivery reliability to multiple school sites on fixed weekly schedules.
