UNSPSC 50324208: Dried seedless limes

The variety of limes known as seedless limes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324208 Dried seedless limes, a Commodity code, covers dried citrus fruit products procured by state and local school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. The scope encompasses individual dried fruit items specified in school meal bids and institutional food service contracts, though recent activity shows minimal direct procurement of dried seedless limes specifically—instead, the code captures broader dried fruit categories within larger fresh-produce and commodities solicitations. State and local issuing bodies purchasing under this code include school districts (particularly those with centralized nutrition procurement), state departments of criminal justice, and municipal education boards. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Board of Education both solicit fresh and processed produce under related codes; the State of Georgia and Texas Department of Criminal Justice also issue food-commodity bids covering multiple produce categories.

Recent procurement activity centers in Georgia and Texas, where school districts and correctional facilities issue the most frequent bids for food commodities. Representative recent solicitations include Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27 (IFB, due June 26, 2026), which specified over 200 line items of fresh and specialty produce for delivery to three school sites across the 2026–27 school year under Buy American requirements; the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases commodities bid (IFB, due June 26, 2026) for 115 line items to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center with mixed food products including fruits and vegetables; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Statewide Procurement Division IFB 304T-26-300CF (due May 4, 2026, extended via Addendum No. 2) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products across five geographic TDCJ warehouse areas, including fresh and processed fruits; and TDCJ Bid No. IW236532 for whole pitted dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality (60–70 count, 25-pound boxes, 1,400-box minimum for Delivery Area 1, due February 20, 2026). All school nutrition bids enforce Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products and mandate HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, and liability insurance.
