UNSPSC 50321546: Dried jonamac apples

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

UNSPSC 50321546 Dried jonamac apples is a Commodity code covering fresh and preserved produce that state and local school districts and corrections agencies procure for institutional food service. Recent solicitations show the code capturing a narrow slice of broader school nutrition and cafeteria procurement — specifically produce items ranging from fresh apples and berries to root vegetables and specialty fruits, alongside dried prunes and other preserved products. School districts dominate recent activity, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia) and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) both issuing IFBs for multi-line-item fresh produce contracts covering 200+ and 115+ line items respectively; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice also appears in the dataset, sourcing dried prunes and cafeteria food products for correctional facilities.

Activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary presence in Connecticut. Hancock County Schools posted an IFB due June 26, 2026, for fresh produce spanning apples (Ambrosia, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz), berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, and leafy greens for delivery to three school sites over a July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 contract term, with the Buy American provision requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed items. The City of Bridgeport's IFB, also due June 26, 2026, covers 115 commodities including fruit and vegetable products destined for the Thomas E. Carroll Nutrition Center with firm-fixed pricing and MBE/CBE preferences under city ordinance. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued an IFB (No. 304T-26-300CF) on behalf of TDCJ for approximately 382 line items spanning fresh and canned vegetables, fruits, and dairy products with FOB Destination delivery to six warehouse locations across Texas; the response deadline was extended via addendum to May 4, 2026. TDCJ also issued a standalone IFB (No. IW236532) for U.S. Grade B dried prunes in 60–70 count size with 1,400-box minimum order for Corpus Christi location, due February 20, 2026. All school-district solicitations enforce Buy American provisions and require HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, and vendor compliance certifications; pricing is firm fixed for contract duration except where major market changes occur with advance written notice.
