UNSPSC 50324501: Dried alphonso mangoes

The variety of mangoes known as alphonso mangoes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324501 Dried alphonso mangoes is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure fresh produce and specialty fruit items as components of broader school nutrition and institutional food service contracts. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show that mangoes—along with dozens of other fresh and processed fruits—are commonly solicited as line items within large, multi-category food procurement RFPs and IFBs issued by school districts, county corrections departments, and state agencies. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all posting nutrition contracts in the first half of 2026 that reference mangoes alongside apples, bananas, berries, citrus, melons, and specialty items. The County of Santa Clara, California and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice also procure dried fruits under related codes, though Santa Clara's ITB specifies dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans rather than mangoes. State education agencies and school nutrition programs are the primary buyers; institutional food service for corrections and county facilities represents a secondary but meaningful market segment.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, with Liberty County Board of Education (IFB due April 29, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County (bid due April 23, 2026), Douglas County School System (RFP due March 4, 2026 for produce and eggs), and Hancock County Schools (IFB due June 26, 2026 for fresh produce spanning the full school year) all soliciting multi-line-item food contracts with mangoes listed among 70–400+ produce and grocery items. Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia (Master Grocery K-12 IFB due April 27, 2026), Rockwood R-VI in Missouri (over 900 line items, bid due April 29, 2026), and the State of Georgia (broader food supplies procurement due June 22, 2026) extend activity across the Southeast and mid-Atlantic. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural content in processed products are standard across school district contracts. All require firm, fixed pricing for 12-month terms, delivery to multiple school sites on defined weekly schedules, compliance with USDA nutritional and food safety standards including HACCP plans, and substantial insurance minimums ($1–2 million commercial general liability). Mango procurement appears as a discretionary or seasonal line item rather than a volume driver; representative contracts show estimated annual cases in the low thousands across entire produce portfolios. No specific set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises are noted in the school nutrition opportunities reviewed.
