UNSPSC 50321506: Dried bramley apples

The variety of apples known as bramley apples that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50321506 Dried bramley apples is a Commodity code. State and local governments buy dried fruit products under this code primarily to support school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other food-service operations. Recent solicitations show procurement of dried fruit items as part of broader produce and commodity purchasing, though the opportunities block contains no solicitations specifically for dried bramley apples or exclusively for dried apples. The Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department solicitation for dried fruits and nuts (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026) represents the closest match, encompassing dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix supplied to a correctional facility, though not dried bramley apples specifically. Dried fruit procurement appears within larger school nutrition contracts where fresh and processed produce are bundled together, such as the Hancock County Schools fresh produce solicitation (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) and the Liberty County Board of Education food products IFB (due April 29, 2026), but these opportunities do not isolate dried bramley apples as a discrete line item. The code shows minimal standalone purchasing activity for the specific commodity.

School districts represent the dominant issuing body across recent state and local opportunities in the broader dried-fruit and produce space, with secondary activity from county correctional facilities. Georgia emerges as a significant procurement jurisdiction, with multiple school systems (Hancock County, Liberty County, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham County) and the state procurement office posting solicitations. Texas, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia, and California also show activity in food-service supply contracting. The recent opportunities block reveals no dedicated solicitations for dried bramley apples alone; the category sits within larger commodity buys anchored on fresh produce, eggs, and main-line food distribution. Vendors pursuing this Commodity code should expect purchasing to be line-item-based within broader grocery or produce contracts rather than standalone dried-bramley-apple buys, and should prioritize school nutrition programs and correctional-facility food services as primary end-use markets.
