UNSPSC 50324512: Dried kesar mangoes

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

UNSPSC 50324512 Dried kesar mangoes is a Commodity code that sees minimal direct procurement activity under its specific name in state and local markets; instead, dried mangoes and other dried tropical fruits are solicited as line items within broader fresh and dried produce contracts. The scope of work under this code in practice encompasses specialty dried fruit products supplied to school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and institutional food service operations. Recent solicitations that nominally reference the dried kesar mango code or closely related dried fruit categories show state and local buyers integrating dried tropical fruits (including mangos, cranberries, raisins, and tropical fruit blends) into annual food contracts alongside fresh produce, with specifications typically requiring USDA compliance, specific calorie and sugar content limits, and packaging in sealed food-grade containers. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, supplemented by state correctional systems, county detention facilities, and state food procurement offices. Georgia school systems appear particularly active in this space, with multiple recent solicitations from Hancock County Schools, Liberty County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, and Douglas County Schools all posting fresh and dried produce bids in the first half of 2026.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued an IFB for fresh produce including mangos due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school sites. The County of Santa Clara (California) solicited dried fruits including a tropical fruit mix blend on an ITB basis due February 5, 2026, for a five-year term supplying Elmwood Correctional Facility. Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products with multiple line items across proteins, produce, and specialty items due May 4, 2026 (extended from April 21). Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) posted a Master Grocery K-12 contract due April 27, 2026, encompassing hundreds of grocery items including produce for delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens. Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued an RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative serving 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $4.4 million for Area One, due March 4, 2026. The code shows steady activity in institutional food procurement but remains subordinate to broader commodity contracts rather than standalone specialty-fruit solicitations.
