UNSPSC 50323456: Dried muscadine grapes

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

UNSPSC 50323456 Dried muscadine grapes (Commodity) represents a narrow specialty fruit segment that rarely appears in recent state and local procurement activity. The code shows minimal current buying action, with dried muscadines absent from the 13 representative solicitations posted between January and June 2026. Those solicitations instead span fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, root vegetables), other dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends), and nuts—but not dried muscadines. The broader dried fruit and specialty produce category draws activity from school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri), state corrections systems (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, County of Santa Clara Office of the Sheriff), and large urban school nutrition programs (Bridgeport, Connecticut and city supply networks). No incumbent vendor relationships or set-asides appear in the records examined.

Recent procurement patterns show dried fruit and nut commodities solicited primarily by school districts and corrections agencies across Georgia, Virginia, Missouri, Texas, California, and Connecticut. The County of Santa Clara's ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 (due February 5, 2026) for dried fruits and nuts serving Elmwood Correctional Facility, and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million and $1.1 million for two geographic areas, represent the largest recent opportunities in the dried and specialty fruit category. However, neither explicitly includes dried muscadine grapes in their scope. The code itself sees negligible recent demand; pursuits in this segment should focus on the broader dried fruit and fresh produce opportunities where dried muscadines, if offered, would compete against raisins, cranberries, and standard commodity fruits under specifications requiring USDA compliance, firm pricing, and compliance with school nutrition standards or correctional facility food service requirements.
