UNSPSC 50321528: Dried gilliflower apples

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

UNSPSC 50321528 Dried gilliflower apples is a Commodity code that sees minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—dried gilliflower apples as a discrete product line—does not align with any of the recent opportunities in the dataset. Recent solicitations tagged under this code span school nutrition programs, detention facility food service, and county food procurement, but none of them specifically call for dried gilliflower apples; instead, they seek comprehensive food supply contracts covering fresh produce, groceries, proteins, and specialty items where dried apples, if purchased at all, would be a single line item within a much broader scope. The issuing bodies range across school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments (Georgia), a county corrections facility (Santa Clara County, California), and a city board of education (Bridgeport, Connecticut), indicating that nutrition and food service procurement is fragmented across many jurisdictions and entity types.

The geographic spread of recent opportunities spans Georgia, Virginia, Missouri, Connecticut, California, and Texas, with the heaviest concentration in Georgia school districts. Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items for the 2026–27 school year with a June 26, 2026 response deadline; Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 covering direct delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens with sealed bids due April 27, 2026; and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs across 30 school districts in Georgia with proposals due March 4, 2026. Because dried gilliflower apples do not appear as a specified line item or product category in any recent solicitation, this code signals limited or misdirected procurement activity and warrants close review before pursuit—the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual buying patterns suggests either miscoding in the source data or minimal standalone demand for this commodity in state and local food service.
