UNSPSC 50322524: Dried sweetheart cherries

The variety of cherries known as sweetheart cherries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322524 Dried sweetheart cherries (Commodity) does not see recent state and local procurement activity aligned with the code's nominal scope. The twelve most recent opportunities posted between January and June 2026 in the block name dried fruits and nuts only peripherally: one Santa Clara County detention facility ITB calls for dried cranberries, dried raisins, and a tropical fruit mix blend alongside walnuts and pecans, but does not specify or isolate dried sweetheart cherries. The remaining eleven solicitations—issued by school nutrition programs in Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, Texas, and Virginia; a county sheriff's office in Texas; and the Georgia state procurement office—target broad fresh and frozen grocery commodities, prepared foods, eggs, and general food supply distribution. None explicitly lists dried sweetheart cherries as a line item. The code appears dormant in state and local school nutrition and correctional facility food service procurement as currently tracked.

School districts and county boards of education represent the dominant buyer cohort in this segment, with recent IFBs from Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all issuing RFPs or IFBs for annual grocery and produce contracts typically spanning July through June. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut and Texas Department of Criminal Justice also appear as repeat purchasers. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. If pursuing opportunities in this family, monitor school nutrition procurement cycles—most solicitations close in April or June for July 1 contract start dates—and broaden focus to fresh and processed fruit categories where dried cherries might slot as component items within larger grocery or produce awards rather than as standalone line items.
