UNSPSC 50323641: Dried pinot gris grapes

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

UNSPSC 50323641 Dried pinot gris grapes, a Commodity code, nominally encompasses dried wine-grape products, but the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code show little activity aligned with that scope. The Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year via IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026), spanning over 200 line items of apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, and specialty fruits — none of which are dried pinot gris grapes. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases posted an IFB for commodities to supply the Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center (due June 26, 2026), covering 115 line items of eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products, similarly unrelated to dried wine grapes. The State of Georgia and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice also posted food and cafeteria product solicitations under this code in May and early 2026, but neither scope specified dried pinot gris grapes. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice did issue a separate IFB (No. IW236532, due February 20, 2026) for whole, pitted, dried prunes meeting U.S. Grade B quality standards — a dried-fruit procurement that shares dried-product characteristics with the code's nominal commodity but does not match the code's specific designation.

The mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the actual recent opportunities suggests that state and local procurement offices are tagging general fresh and processed food solicitations to this code regardless of whether dried wine grapes are included in the scope. Geographic activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, with issuing bodies limited to school districts and state agencies; no private sector or repeated major buyers appear in the recent record. The code shows no genuine market activity for dried pinot gris grapes in state and local procurement during this period. A vendor seeking to pursue opportunities under this code should verify that the issuing body's actual scope includes dried wine grapes before responding, as the recent posting pattern suggests significant classification error rather than active procurement demand for the commodity.
