UNSPSC 50323409: Dried beauty seedless grapes

The variety of table grapes known as beauty seedless grapes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50323409 Dried beauty seedless grapes (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The opportunities tagged under this code comprise school nutrition, corrections food service, and general food supply contracts that span hundreds of line items across fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods—but none of the sourcing documents reviewed mention dried beauty seedless grapes or any dried grape products by name. The Douglas County School System RFP for fresh produce and eggs lists approximately 72 produce line items; the Hancock County Schools IFB for fresh produce encompasses over 200 line items; and the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System bid covers 72 fresh produce items—yet dried grapes do not appear in any itemized scope. The County of Santa Clara ITB for dried fruits and nuts, the most directly relevant opportunity, specifically calls for dried raisins, dried cranberries, dried tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans, with no mention of dried beauty seedless grapes or other dried grape varieties.

The mismatch between the UNSPSC commodity designation and the actual procurement activity suggests either a coding error in how the opportunities were tagged or that this particular dried grape product line does not currently generate state and local solicitations. School districts dominate the recent activity—Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System, and Rockwood R-VI School District—along with corrections facilities in Texas and California, and a city nutrition center in Connecticut. These buyers source dried fruits primarily through consolidated line-item bids alongside fresh produce and other food categories rather than as standalone commodity purchases. Vendors pursuing this UNSPSC code should verify the correct classification or investigate whether dried grape products are currently procurement priorities in their target markets.
