UNSPSC 50403503: Black enorma eggplants

The variety of eggplants known as black enorma eggplants

UNSPSC 50403503 Black enorma eggplants, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity posted under it. The recent opportunities block shows no procurements for black eggplants or the variety named; instead, the code is tagged on solicitations for broadly scoped fresh produce, fresh fruit and vegetable snacks, school nutrition grocery items, cafeteria food products, and related food service supplies across multiple state and local agencies. School districts represent the dominant buyer type—Madison Metropolitan School District, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Northside Independent School District, McAllen Independent School District, Austin Independent School District, and numerous Georgia county boards of education all solicited produce under this code in recent months. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and the City of San Antonio's Department of Human Services also appear as repeat issuing bodies. The geographic spread is heavily concentrated in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida, Connecticut, and Missouri.

Representative recent opportunities include Madison Metropolitan School District issuing RFB 4163 for fresh fruit and vegetable snacks due July 29, 2026, requiring 5,900 weekly servings of ready-to-eat produce sourced within 400 miles of Madison and within Wisconsin, with a five percent diversity preference; Head Start of Greater Dallas soliciting IFB 26-GP for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods, produce, and meat meeting CACFP requirements, due June 24, 2026; Hillsborough County Public Schools issuing RFP 26039RFQDST for specialty fruits and vegetables for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program at 18 elementary schools, due March 11, 2026; Northside Independent School District seeking sealed bids through RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce across 127 campuses, due May 7, 2026; and the Douglas County School System issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for produce and eggs across 30 Georgia school districts with approximately 4.4 million dollars in estimated annual spending for Area One, due March 4, 2026. The code sees active procurement year-round, with response dates spanning February through July 2026, driven primarily by school nutrition and child care meal program contracting tied to fiscal-year cycles.
