UNSPSC 50323465: Dried olivette grapes

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

UNSPSC 50323465 Dried olivette grapes (Commodity) represents a narrow product line within school nutrition procurement, where state and local governments buy prepared dried fruit products—primarily raisins, cranberries, and other dried fruits packaged for institutional food service—rather than fresh or processed grapes specifically. Recent solicitations confirm that dried fruits appear as line items within broader food service contracts rather than as standalone specialty procurements; the County of Santa Clara's February 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts at a correctional facility and the Rockwood R-VI School District's April 2026 grocery items solicitation both included dried fruit components within larger food supply scopes, but no recent solicitation targeted dried olivette grapes as a distinct commodity. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix under broader food service codes that encompass dried fruits, with notable recent activity from Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia), alongside a single correctional facility procurement from Santa Clara County, California. Geographic concentration centers on the Southeast, particularly Georgia, with secondary activity in the Mid-Atlantic (Virginia) and Midwest (Missouri), though the single dried-fruit-specific ITB came from California.

The code shows minimal recent direct activity. The County of Santa Clara ITB (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026) is the only solicitation explicitly targeting dried fruits and nuts as a primary procurement, requesting 5,880 cases of dried raisins annually and smaller quantities of dried cranberries and tropical fruit mix, all on a five-year contract with firm pricing in Year 1 and capped annual increases thereafter; however, that solicitation specified raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit blends, not dried olivette grapes. Dried fruits appear as incidental line items in broader school nutrition RFPs and IFBs—embedded within 400+ item food product scopes (Liberty County), 900+ item grocery scopes (Rockwood), and master grocery contracts (Fairfax County)—but no recent state or local opportunity explicitly named dried olivette grapes or positioned them as a procurement focus. The code shows limited standalone market visibility in current state and local solicitations; pursuit should focus on participation in larger food service RFPs and IFBs where dried fruits are one of many commodity categories, or on monitoring correctional and institutional food service networks that may issue specialized dried-fruit procurements on irregular cycles.
