UNSPSC 50321520: Dried earligold apples

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

UNSPSC 50321520 Dried earligold apples, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's scope. The source records one indirect reference in a multi-item school nutrition solicitation (Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27, IFB posted June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026), which listed multiple apple varieties among over 200 fresh produce line items but did not isolate dried earligold apples as a distinct requirement. School districts represent the primary issuing body type across the food-procurement ecosystem documented in the source, though they typically solicit fresh produce, proteins, grains, and prepared entrees as broad commodity bundles rather than dried specialty fruit items. Georgia school districts appear most active in the recent cycle, with Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County all posting nutrition solicitations between February and June 2026. Correctional facilities and detention centers also procure dried fruit items, as evidenced by Santa Clara County's ITB for dried fruits and nuts (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, posted January 28, 2026, due February 5, 2026), though that scope encompassed raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans—not earligold apples.

The source does not identify any recent solicitation explicitly seeking dried earligold apples as a line item or primary commodity. School nutrition contracts dominate the documented activity, with districts in Georgia, Missouri, Virginia, and Connecticut all issuing multi-hundred-line-item fresh and processed food RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs between January and June 2026. State procurement offices (Georgia, Texas) and regional buying cooperatives (GEC in Georgia) also appear as issuing bodies. Dried apple products, if procured at all, would likely be subsumed within broader dried-fruit or processed-food categories in school nutrition or institutional food service contracts. The absence of standalone opportunities for dried earligold apples in the recent record suggests either negligible demand, aggregation under family-level or broader class-level codes, or sourcing through standing cooperative agreements rather than competitive solicitation.
