UNSPSC 50415300: Organic peanuts

The type of organic vegetable known as organic peanuts

UNSPSC 50415300 Organic peanuts, a Class code, does not reflect the actual scope of what state and local governments are buying under this taxonomy designation. Recent solicitations tagged to this code instead request bids for fresh produce—including fruits, vegetables, and eggs—to support school nutrition programs, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Programs, and child nutrition services across multiple jurisdictions. School districts dominate the issuing bodies, with state education agencies, county boards of education, and independent school districts (ranging from small rural districts to large urban systems) all posting opportunities. State departments in Georgia and Missouri, plus districts in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and Utah, comprise the geographic footprint of recent activity. Representative recent solicitations include the Early County Board of Education (IFB for food and non-food products with response date June 8, 2026), Northside Independent School District in Texas (RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce with response date May 7, 2026), and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida (RFP 26039RFPDST for specialty fruits and vegetables under the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with response date March 11, 2026).

The work being solicited encompasses comprehensive produce procurement: apples, bananas, berries, broccoli, carrots, celery, peppers, tomatoes, leafy greens, potatoes, citrus fruits, and eggs in varying pack sizes delivered weekly or multiple times weekly to elementary through high schools and central nutrition facilities. Districts emphasize HACCP certification, Buy American compliance, temperature-controlled delivery between 6:00 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., and product quality standards including minimum shelf life (typically five to fourteen days from delivery). Contracts commonly span July 1 through June 30 school fiscal years with renewal options of one to four additional one-year terms. The Douglas County School System cooperative procurement (RFP SN 26-004, March 4, 2026 response) spans 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million combined. Recent opportunities show widespread geographic distribution across the South (Georgia, Florida) and Southwest (Texas, Utah) and Midwest (Missouri), with school nutrition as the dominant use case and no set-aside restrictions limiting competition by disadvantaged-enterprise classification in the available solicitations.
