UNSPSC 50322215: Dried toro blueberries

The variety of blueberries known as toro blueberries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322215 Dried toro blueberries is a Commodity code covering dried berry products procured by state and local school nutrition programs, state food service operations, and corrections departments. Recent solicitations show the code applied broadly to fresh and processed produce procurement rather than specifically to dried blueberries, reflecting how school districts and state agencies tag multi-item food contracts at the commodity level. The work involves supplying fresh produce, processed fruits, and related food items to school nutrition centers, state institutional kitchens, and detention facilities under firm-fixed-price contracts with Buy American compliance requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products). Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education, Bridgeport Board of Education), state procurement offices (Georgia, Texas), and state criminal justice departments. Most recent activity spans school-year nutrition supply contracts running July through June and institutional food service agreements with quarterly or annual terms.

Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas. Hancock County Schools (Sparta, Georgia) posted an IFB for fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year with a June 26, 2026 response deadline covering over 200 line items across berries, vegetables, and specialty produce for delivery to three school sites. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases issued an IFB on June 2, 2026 (due June 26) for 115 line items of commodities including produce to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center, requiring electronic submission through OpenGov and MBE/CBE certification eligibility under city ordinance. The State of Georgia posted a food supplies and kitchen products IFB on May 15, 2026 (due June 22), and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued an IFB on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic areas, with the response deadline extended via Addendum No. 2 to May 4, 2026. A Texas Department of Criminal Justice dried-prunes bid (Bid No. IW236532) with a minimum order of 1,400 boxes demonstrates item-level procurement within the produce category, though the code shows limited recent activity specifically targeting dried blueberries in isolation.
