UNSPSC 50323430: Dried emerald seedless grapes

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

UNSPSC 50323430 Dried emerald seedless grapes (Commodity) represents dried fruit products procured by state and local school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations, though recent solicitations under this code emphasize fresh produce and broader commodity categories rather than dried grapes specifically. State and local governments buy cafeteria and school lunch supplies through school districts, state departments of corrections, state procurement divisions, and municipal boards of education. The work involves providing food items to institutional kitchens and nutrition centers on firm-fixed-price contracts with delivery to multiple designated sites, compliance with Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), USDA grade certification, HACCP plans where applicable, and vendor insurance requirements. Contracts typically span twelve months with optional renewal periods and payment terms ranging from Net 30 to Net 45 days.

Recent activity appears geographically dispersed across Texas, Georgia, and Connecticut, with school districts and state institutional buyers posting IFBs during May and June 2026. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issuing IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce delivery to three school sites with a June 26, 2026 due date; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut requesting commodities (115 line items) for the Board of Education Nutrition Center with an electronic submission deadline of June 26, 2026 through the OpenGov Procurement Portal; and the State of Georgia posting a general food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) with a June 22, 2026 due date. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, solicited cafeteria food products (IFB 304T-26-300CF) covering approximately 382 line items for delivery to multiple TDCJ warehouse locations, with the extended due date of May 4, 2026. These solicitations reflect institutional food purchasing across K-12 nutrition programs and correctional facilities rather than procurement focused specifically on dried grapes.
