UNSPSC 50321566: Dried pitmaston pineapple apples

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

UNSPSC 50321566 Dried pitmaston pineapple apples is a Commodity code that encompasses individual fresh and processed fruit products sourced for institutional nutrition and food-service programs. State and local governments soliciting under this code are predominantly school districts and education-related entities, alongside corrections departments and state procurement offices. Recent opportunities show that while the code nominally specifies a dried apple variety, actual state and local procurement activity under this code is dominated by fresh produce supply contracts for school nutrition programs and institutional food service, with scope extending well beyond the code's narrow product name to include multi-line fresh fruit and vegetable baskets, processed food commodities, and specialty produce. School districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut) and state departments (Georgia state procurement, Texas Department of Criminal Justice) are the primary issuing bodies.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the South and Southwest, with recent solicitations originating in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products with a response due date of May 4, 2026, encompassing approximately 382 line items of proteins, dairy, grains, and fresh and canned produce delivered to six TDCJ distribution points across Texas. Hancock County Schools (Sparta, Georgia) released IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce across over 200 line items including multiple apple varieties, berries, and specialty produce with bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities for the Board of Education Nutrition Center under BNB053266, with electronic responses due June 26, 2026, covering 115 line items spanning eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products. All three school-linked solicitations incorporate Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products and firm pricing for the contract term.
