UNSPSC 50322706: Dried mcfarlin cranberries

The variety of cranberries known as mcfarlin cranberries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50322706 Dried mcfarlin cranberries is a Commodity code that represents agricultural products procured for institutional food service and nutrition programs. State and local governments buy dried cranberries and similar dried fruit products primarily for school meal programs, state correctional facilities, and other institutional cafeteria operations. The scope spans dried whole and pitted fruits meeting USDA grade standards (Grade A or Grade B), packaged in food-grade sealed containers with specified case weights and unit counts, and delivered on firm fixed-price, destination-freight-prepaid terms. Issuing bodies include school districts (via their board of education purchasing offices or nutrition departments), state correctional agencies, and municipal public health or food service departments. School districts dominate recent activity, often bundling dried cranberries and other dried fruits within broader produce or commodity food service contracts that also specify fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and pantry staples.

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in Georgia and Texas. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce and related items with a June 26, 2026 response deadline; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut (Connecticut) posted a commodity bid (BNB053266) due June 26, 2026 covering eggs, poultry, cheese, and fruit and vegetable products for its Board of Education Nutrition Center; the State of Georgia posted a food, supplies, and kitchen products solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) due June 22, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (Statewide Procurement Division) issued IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with an extended response deadline of May 4, 2026. A prior TDCJ solicitation (Bid No. IW236532) for whole, pitted dried prunes with a 1,400-box minimum order quantity was issued April 23, 2026 for February 20, 2026 opening. All institutional food service contracts enforce the Buy American Provision requiring at least 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products and mandate USDA compliance, HACCP plans, liability insurance, and delivery scheduling to fixed institutional locations.
