UNSPSC 50323491: Dried superior seedless grapes

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

UNSPSC 50323491 Dried superior seedless grapes is a Commodity code covering dried grape products procured by state and local school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations. State and local governments buy dried grapes primarily as components of bulk food commodity purchases for school cafeteria meal programs and state correctional facility feeding operations, where the product appears alongside fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and processed food items in consolidated nutrition-services contracts. School districts and state agencies issue the majority of solicitations under this code; Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice are recent buyers. The scope of work involves supplying dried grapes in specified case sizes and unit counts to multiple delivery locations under firm fixed-price contracts running one school or fiscal year, with Buy American compliance requirements mandating minimum domestic content thresholds (typically 51 percent for processed products) and HACCP food-safety certifications, E-Verify authorization, and comprehensive liability insurance.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southeast and Texas. Hancock County Schools posted IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, seeking fresh produce including specialty dried items for the 2026–27 school year with sealed bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities including fruit and vegetable products on June 2, 2026, with electronic bids due June 26, 2026, to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued Bid No. IW236532 on April 23, 2026, specifically for whole pitted dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality with a minimum order of 1,400 boxes to its Corpus Christi location, with the due date revised to February 20, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a food supplies procurement on May 15, 2026, with a June 22, 2026, response deadline covering multiple food categories for state institutional operations. These solicitations suggest demand from school nutrition centers and corrections departments in Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut, though the code shows limited high-visibility recent activity compared to broader fresh-produce spending.
