UNSPSC 50301611: Darby royal apricots

The variety of apricots known as darby royal apricots

UNSPSC 50301611 Darby royal apricots is a Commodity code that names a single dried-fruit product line, but recent state and local procurement activity shows virtually no demand for this specific item. The available opportunities reflect school districts, child care programs, senior services agencies, and correctional facilities procuring fresh produce, frozen fruits and vegetables, dried fruits in bulk generic categories, and comprehensive grocery assortments—not specialty apricot varieties by cultivar. One recent solicitation from Santa Clara County (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026) procured dried fruits including raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit blends for correctional food service, but made no mention of apricots or the Darby royal variety. The absence of itemized apricot procurement in dozens of recent school nutrition, child care, and institutional food-service RFPs, RFQs, and ITBs across multiple states suggests this code sees little to no state and local activity.

The recent opportunities block contains no solicitation matching the Darby royal apricots code. Active procurement in the produce and food-service space focuses on fresh and frozen vegetables, generic dried fruit assortments, eggs, and whole groceries. Vendors pursuing apricots in state and local channels should expect to bid under broader produce or dried-fruit aggregation codes rather than this specific cultivar line. The code's narrow scope—a named variety of a single dried fruit—does not align with the institutional scale, bundled product approach, and ingredient-agnostic specifications typical of school district, care program, and municipal food procurement.
