UNSPSC 50323303: Dried foster grapefruit

The variety of grapefruit known as foster grapefruit that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50323303 Dried foster grapefruit is a Commodity code that sees minimal relevant recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes processed citrus products, but the recent opportunities dataset contains no solicitations explicitly seeking dried grapefruit or closely related dried citrus items. One recent solicitation—County of Santa Clara's ITB for dried fruits and nuts—includes dried cranberries, dried tropical fruit mix, raisins, walnuts, and pecans for correctional food services, but does not mention grapefruit or grapefruit products. The remaining opportunities in the dataset target fresh produce, grocery staples, eggs, and main-line food service distributions across school nutrition programs, state corrections systems, and county detention facilities, none of which reference dried grapefruit as a line item.

State and local buying under this code, where it occurs, is concentrated among school districts and corrections departments procuring for food service operations, but no recent posting demonstrates active demand for dried foster grapefruit specifically. The Santa Clara County ITB (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617) illustrates the broader dried-fruit-and-nuts procurement category—correctional facilities do buy packaged dried fruits for inmate meal programs—yet the itemization favors raisins, cranberries, and tropical blends over citrus varieties. School districts across Georgia, Virginia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Texas are actively soliciting fresh produce and grocery items for the 2026–2027 school year (Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, and Douglas County School System), but these RFPs and IFBs emphasize fresh fruits and vegetables rather than dried or processed citrus. Without evidence of recent state or local demand for dried foster grapefruit specifically, the code appears inactive in the current procurement cycle.
