UNSPSC 50322708: Dried pilgrim cranberries

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

UNSPSC 50322708 Dried pilgrim cranberries is a Commodity code that encompasses dried cranberry products supplied to institutional food service operations, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. State and local governments procure dried cranberries as a shelf-stable fruit component in child nutrition and inmate meal programs, where they appear alongside other dried fruits in bulk packaging specifications. Recent solicitations show dried cranberries bid as a line item within broader dried fruit and produce procurements, with vendors supplying cases of pre-portioned dried cranberry packets or bulk dried cranberry products meeting USDA nutritional standards and food safety requirements such as HACCP certification and grade compliance.

School districts and county correctional authorities represent the primary issuing bodies under this code. The Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department (Elmwood Correctional Facility) issued ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 in January 2026 for dried cranberries as part of a five-item dried fruits and nuts procurement requiring 1,000 cases annually of dried cranberries meeting 110–125 calories per serving with zero added sugars, due February 5, 2026. Multiple school districts across Georgia and other states regularly incorporate dried cranberries into master grocery and food product IFBs and RFPs, though the code shows limited standalone dried cranberry solicitations; procurement activity clusters within larger fresh produce and commodity food bundles rather than as isolated line items. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Georgia school districts (Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County), Texas (TDCJ correctional facilities), and California (Santa Clara County), with scattered activity across other state and local nutrition programs. The code shows no incumbent vendors or budget ranges disclosed in recent opportunities, and no minority or disadvantaged business set-asides specific to dried fruit procurements have been identified in the available records.
