UNSPSC 50323607: Dried carnelian grapes

The variety of wine grapes known as carnelian grapes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50323607 Dried carnelian grapes, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The source shows no solicitations for dried carnelian grapes or any specialty dried grape product. Instead, the opportunities recorded under this code document school nutrition programs, correctional facility food services, and district food supply contracts that span fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, prepared entrees, and general grocery items—none of which are dried carnelian grapes or specialty dried fruit products narrowly defined by that commodity name.

The issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), municipalities (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), state agencies (State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and county-level public bodies (County of Santa Clara, California). The actual scope spans fresh produce procurement (apples, berries, broccoli, carrots, citrus, leafy greens, melons, peppers, tomatoes), eggs, proteins (beef, chicken, fish), dairy products, grains, condiments, beverages, and prepared foods delivered on weekly or as-needed schedules to schools, correctional facilities, and nutrition warehouses across multiple locations within each jurisdiction. Recent representative solicitations include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce with a response date of June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport's IFB for commodities (eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce) due June 26, 2026; Texas Department of Criminal Justice's IFB for cafeteria food products (proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, beverages, vegetables, and fruits) with a response date of May 4, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools' sealed-bid Master Grocery K-12 contract due April 27, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara's ITB for dried fruits and nuts (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blend, walnuts, pecans) due February 5, 2026. The code shows concentrated activity across Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, Douglas County school systems), with additional activity in Virginia, Connecticut, Missouri, Texas, and California. This UNSPSC classification appears to be a mislabeling—the code should not be applied to broad grocery and produce procurement, and vendors pursuing opportunities in school nutrition and institutional food service should verify the correct commodity codes for their product lines rather than rely on this designation.
