UNSPSC 50322605: Dried diamante citrons

The variety of citrons known as diamante citrons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322605 Dried diamante citrons is a Commodity code that covers dried citrus fruit products purchased by state and local education and correctional agencies for institutional food service. The recent opportunities show that this code sits within a broader procurement activity for institutional food supplies, though the specific citron line items appear within larger produce and food commodities solicitations rather than as standalone items. State and local governments buying under this code include school districts and state departments of criminal justice; school nutrition programs dominate the recent activity, with secondary demand from correctional facilities. The solicitations reflect institutional food service requirements—sealed bids for school cafeteria supplies, fixed pricing for multi-month contract periods, and compliance with Buy American provisions requiring at least 51 percent domestic content in processed products. Vendors must meet HACCP or equivalent food safety standards, provide product traceability documentation, and commit to FOB Destination or prepaid freight delivery to multiple institutional locations.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including citrus fruits, with sealed bids due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities under IFB BNB053266 with a June 26, 2026 deadline for delivery to the Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center. The State of Georgia issued a May 15, 2026 solicitation for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 response date. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with a May 4, 2026 deadline (extended via addendum from April 21, 2026). A separate TDCJ bid (IW236532) for whole pitted dried prunes closed February 20, 2026. School district nutrition programs and state correctional food services represent the primary buying constituencies under this code.
