UNSPSC 50323411: Dried black emerald grapes

The variety of table grapes known as black emerald grapes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50323411 Dried black emerald grapes is a Commodity code that represents fresh and dried fruit products purchased by state and local school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. Recent opportunities show school districts and state agencies buying dried fruit alongside fresh produce under food service contracts, though the code's nominal scope for dried black emerald grapes specifically appears overinclusive of broader produce and food commodities. State and local buyers under this code span school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state departments (Georgia and Texas), and state correctional systems (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). The work solicited includes multi-item produce and food procurement with line-item detail, fixed-firm pricing, FOB Destination delivery, Buy American compliance at 51 percent domestic content for processed items, USDA grade certification, HACCP or equivalent food safety documentation, and nutritional analysis supporting school lunch program compliance and correctional facility meal service.
