UNSPSC 50324509: Dried irwin mangoes

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

UNSPSC 50324509 Dried irwin mangoes is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work being solicited under it in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities tagged with this code involve broad fresh produce and grocery supply contracts for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and food service operations — encompassing hundreds of line items spanning apples, berries, vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods, with only incidental references to dried fruits or specialty produce. The Commodity code's narrow focus on a single dried fruit variety bears no meaningful relationship to the scope of work state and local buyers are actually posting.

School districts dominate the issuing body mix, including Hancock County Board of Education (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), often procuring through cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative. A smaller set of opportunities targets correctional and other public facilities — the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, County of Santa Clara (detention food services), and the State of Georgia. Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast, with secondary activity in Texas, Missouri, Connecticut, and California. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Schools' Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27 (IFB, due June 26, 2026, covering over 200 line items from apples to mangos); the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut seeking commodities for school nutrition (IFB, due June 26, 2026, 115 line items); and the County of Santa Clara's Dried Fruits and Nuts procurement (ITB, due February 5, 2026, targeting five line items of dried fruits and nuts for correctional food services). The code shows activity but the mismatch between its Commodity designation and the multi-category scope of actual solicitations suggests tagging drift rather than meaningful market alignment.
