UNSPSC 50324505: Dried francine mangoes

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

UNSPSC 50324505 Dried francine mangoes (Commodity) does not reflect the actual work being solicited under this code at the state and local level. Recent opportunities tagged with this code show school nutrition programs and state corrections facilities procuring large quantities of fresh and frozen produce across diverse categories—apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, citrus, melons, specialty fruits including mangos, poultry, dairy, grains, and canned goods—rather than dried mangoes specifically. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state agencies (State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), and municipal procurement offices. The scope across these solicitations spans 115 to 382 line items per contract, with Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products, USDA grade certification, HACCP plans where applicable, and firm fixed pricing for multi-year terms. Vendors must comply with food safety, nutritional analysis, state health inspection, and insurance requirements including $500,000 to $1 million commercial general liability coverage.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas based on recent solicitations posted between May and June 2026. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued an IFB for fresh produce delivery to three school locations with a June 26, 2026 response deadline, Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (Connecticut) solicited commodities including fruits and vegetables for the Board of Education Nutrition Center also due June 26, 2026, the State of Georgia posted a general food supplies and kitchen products IFB due June 22, 2026, and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued an IFB on behalf of TDCJ for cafeteria food products across five geographic areas with a May 4, 2026 response deadline. A separate TDCJ solicitation (IW236532) for dried prunes posted in April 2026 with a February 20, 2026 due date demonstrates procurement of specific dried-fruit items, though the code's nominal scope (dried mangoes) does not align with the volume and diversity of fresh produce, proteins, and staples actually being purchased. Mismatch between the code and recent opportunity scope suggests this Commodity code does not reliably capture state and local dried-mango procurement activity.
