UNSPSC 50324620: Dried honeydew melons

Any of a variety of muskmelon vines having fruit with a smooth white rind and white or greenish flesh that does not have a musky smell that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324620 Dried honeydew melons (Commodity) represents a narrow product category within state and local food procurement, yet the code shows minimal recent activity aligned with its specific scope. School districts, correctional facilities, and county nutrition programs dominate state and local food procurement broadly, but recent opportunities tagged to this code do not focus on dried honeydew melons as a distinct line item. The source records show school nutrition solicitations (Hancock County Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education, Liberty County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Schools, Douglas County Schools) and correctional facility food service (TDCJ, Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department) requesting fresh produce, dried fruits, nuts, and staple grocery items in large quantities—but none isolates dried honeydew melons as a standalone procurement need.

Geographic activity in recent solicitations spans Georgia (Hancock County Schools IFB due June 26, 2026; Liberty County Schools due April 29, 2026; Douglas County Schools RFP for produce and eggs through GEC Buying Cooperative, March 4, 2026 response; Savannah-Chatham County Schools fresh produce bid due April 23, 2026), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education ITB due June 26, 2026), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District grocery items due April 29, 2026), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools Master Grocery K-12 IFB due April 27, 2026), Texas (TDCJ cafeteria food products IFB extended to May 4, 2026, and prunes procurement IW236532), and California (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department dried fruits and nuts ITB due February 5, 2026). None of these opportunities lists dried honeydew melons as a distinct commodity line. School nutrition programs frequently specify apples, berries, citrus, melons broadly, dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, prunes, tropical fruit blends), and nuts, but procurement records do not reflect sourcing of dried honeydew melons specifically. The code shows little relevant recent activity; vendors should monitor school district and correctional facility RFPs for fresh and dried fruit categories more broadly.
