UNSPSC 50324105: Dried eureka lemons

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

UNSPSC 50324105 Dried eureka lemons is a Commodity code that sees minimal direct solicitation activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities block contains thirteen school food service and correctional facility procurement records spanning multiple states and issuing bodies, yet only one procurement — Santa Clara County's ITB for dried fruits and nuts — involves dried fruit products at all, and that solicitation groups dried fruits generically without specifying eureka lemons or any citrus variety. The remaining twelve opportunities solicit fresh produce (apples, berries, leafy greens, carrots, peppers, tomatoes), prepared entrees, dairy, proteins, and broad grocery categories for school nutrition programs and correctional food service. The code's nominal scope — dried eureka lemons specifically — does not align with the work state and local governments are actually buying under this classification in the available records.

The issuing bodies pursuing food service procurement across the block include school districts (Hancock County Schools, Georgia; Fairfax County Public Schools, Virginia; Rockwood R-VI, Missouri; Liberty County Schools, Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Georgia; Douglas County Schools, Georgia), municipal education departments (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), state agencies (State of Georgia; Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and correctional facilities (Santa Clara County Sheriff, California). These are primarily K-12 nutrition programs with high-volume demand and fixed annual contract cycles running July-June. Geographic concentration appears in Georgia (four school district solicitations), Texas (one TDCJ procurement), and scattered activity in Virginia, Connecticut, Missouri, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce due June 26, 2026, encompassing 200+ line items of apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, and citrus fruits; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB due April 27, 2026, requiring 76 minimum line items from 45 schools; and Santa Clara County's ITB for dried fruits and nuts due February 5, 2026, specifying raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans on an all-or-none basis. The code shows little relevant recent activity under its stated commodity description.
