UNSPSC 50323111: Dried white king figs

The variety of figs known as white king figs that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50323111 Dried white king figs, a Commodity code, represents a narrow line item within school lunch and institutional food procurement. State and local governments purchasing under this code are sourcing dried fruit for student nutrition programs and correctional facility food service operations. Recent opportunities show school districts and state corrections departments buying dried fruits—including figs, prunes, and other dried products—as components of larger fresh and processed food contracts rather than as standalone line items. The work involves meeting USDA grade standards, complying with Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content in processed products, maintaining HACCP plans and food-safety certifications, and delivering to multiple institutional locations on fixed schedules.

School districts dominate recent activity under this code tier, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia) and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) both posting IFBs in June 2026 for fresh and processed produce spanning over 100 line items each, while the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and the State of Georgia have issued recent commodity food solicitations covering dried fruits among broader food categories. Geographic activity concentrates in the Southeast and Texas, with posted opportunities from Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas between May and June 2026. Hancock County Schools issued IFB #SN002-2027 with a June 26, 2026 response deadline covering fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year, and the City of Bridgeport's Department of Public Purchases posted commodities solicitation BNB053266 also due June 26, 2026 for the Board of Education Nutrition Center. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF (response deadline May 4, 2026, extended via addendum) for cafeteria food products across multiple warehouse locations, and TDCJ also procured dried prunes (Bid No. IW236532) in early 2026. Pricing is firm fixed for contract terms running through mid-2027, with awards typically made to single or multiple vendors based on lowest responsive and responsible bid or best value. MBE and CBE certifications apply where city ordinances govern; no federal set-asides are noted in the recent activity.
