UNSPSC 50323415: Dried black pearl grapes

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

UNSPSC 50323415 Dried black pearl grapes, a Commodity code, covers the procurement of dried grape products by state and local governments, typically purchased as food service commodities for school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state agency cafeterias. Recent opportunities show that school districts and state corrections agencies are the primary buyers, soliciting dried fruits and other preserved produce as components of broader food-service contracts rather than as standalone line items. While the code nominally names a specific dried-grape variety, actual procurement activity under this classification spans general dried fruit and preserved vegetable categories integrated into larger food-supply bids covering proteins, fresh produce, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous kitchen staples.

Activity is concentrated in the Southeast and South, with recent solicitations from Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026 (response due May 4, 2026, extended via addendum to cover approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products for distribution across five geographic areas and six TDCJ warehouse locations, with firm pricing on FOB Destination terms through August 31, 2027, plus two optional one-year renewals); Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia posted IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026 (bids sealed and due June 26, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. for fresh produce across over 200 line items with delivery to three school sites through June 30, 2027); and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases requested bids on June 2, 2026 (electronic submissions due June 26, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. for 115 line items of commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products for the Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center through June 30, 2027). The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts also issued a state-level food solicitation on May 15, 2026 (due June 22, 2026) with scope details in an attachment. All major opportunities require Buy American compliance with minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products and include HACCP or USDA compliance certifications, debarment verification, and proof of insurance.
