UNSPSC 50324303: Dried big jim loquats

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

UNSPSC 50324303 Dried big jim loquats is a Commodity code. The recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show a sharp mismatch between the nominal commodity (dried big jim loquats, a specialty fruit) and actual procurement activity: the four recent solicitations span fresh produce for school nutrition, cafeteria food products for a state corrections system, and dried prunes, but contain no identifiable purchases of dried big jim loquats. School districts and state agencies are the primary issuing bodies, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), the State of Georgia, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice all posting food-procurement solicitations in the past six months. The scope of work across these opportunities centers on fresh and frozen food staples — apples, berries, vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, and miscellaneous kitchen supplies — rather than specialty dried fruits aligned with the code's name.

Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Southeast and Texas. Hancock County Schools in Georgia issued an IFB for fresh produce with a response deadline of June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items for delivery to three school locations during the 2026–27 contract year. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut issued a commodities IFB also due June 26, 2026, covering 115 line items for the Board of Education Nutrition Center with delivery through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia posted a solicitation on May 15, 2026, for food supplies and kitchen products due June 22, 2026, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products on May 4, 2026, with 382 line items across proteins, dairy, grains, vegetables, and condiments for multiple warehouse locations. The code shows little activity directly aligned with dried big jim loquats and may reflect a tagging or data-quality issue rather than meaningful procurement demand under the commodity name itself.
