UNSPSC 50324302: Dried benlehr loquats

The variety of loquats known as benlehr loquats that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324302 Dried benlehr loquats, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities block. The code nominally covers a specific dried fruit product, but the recent solicitations tagged under it document wholesale food procurement for school districts, corrections facilities, and other public institutions—spanning fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, prepared entrees, and miscellaneous grocery items. The opportunities show school nutrition programs and corrections departments procuring broad commodity baskets through IFBs and RFPs with response dates between February and June 2026. State and local governments use this code tier to tag institutional food service solicitations, though the actual buying includes far more than the narrow product name suggests.

State and local 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, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), municipal purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut), a state agency (State of Georgia), a state correctional authority (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and a county corrections facility (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office in California). School districts dominate the activity, with multiple Georgia districts appearing across the recent opportunities. The geographic spread centers on the South—Georgia, Texas, and Missouri—with additional activity in Connecticut, Virginia, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce with a June 26, 2026 response date covering over 200 line items; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323) due April 27, 2026; Rockwood R-VI School District's grocery items solicitation (due April 29, 2026) with over 900 line items across snacks, produce, dairy, and prepared foods; and Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million across two geographic areas.
