UNSPSC 50324104: Dried escondido lemons

The variety of lemons known as escondido lemons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324104 Dried escondido lemons (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's scope. The recent solicitations in the block are dominated by fresh produce, eggs, comprehensive food supply contracts, and dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, pecans) for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities, but dried escondido lemons do not appear as a line item or procurement focus in any of the posted opportunities. The one dried-fruit solicitation—Santa Clara County's ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 for dried fruits and nuts at Elmwood Correctional Facility—specifies raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit blend, not citrus products. School districts and county boards of education dominate the recent issuing-body mix, with opportunities spanning Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, Texas, Virginia, and California, but none name dried lemons or dried citrus as a contracted commodity.

The sourcing activity under the code appears episodic and indirect. Recent state and local procurement has concentrated on bulk fresh produce, eggs, and prepared foods for K-12 nutrition programs and institutional food service—categories that dwarf any single specialty dried-fruit line item. Dried citrus or specialized dried lemon products do not surface in the representative recent solicitations: Hancock County Schools (Georgia) IFB for fresh produce (June 2026), Bridgeport (Connecticut) Board of Education commodities (June 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 (April 2026), or the Douglas County (Georgia) RFP for fresh produce and eggs via GEC Buying Cooperative (March 2026). If dried escondido lemons are procured at all under this code, they are either bundled into larger produce-supply contracts without line-item visibility or sourced through cooperative purchasing vehicles at volumes too small to surface independently. This code warrants a watch posture rather than active pursuit unless specific buyer intelligence surfaces dedicated dried-citrus solicitations or integration into a larger food-service contract.
