UNSPSC 50324800: Dried myrtle

The type of fruit known as myrtle that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324800 Dried myrtle, a Class code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity tagged to it. The most recent opportunities under this code involve fresh produce, general grocery items, food service distribution, and dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans) for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state food services — none of which are myrtle. The code shows minimal to no actual procurement volume for the product nominally categorized under it, suggesting either a tagging error in the underlying database or extremely limited demand for dried myrtle in state and local government supply chains.

School districts and departments of education dominate the recent solicitations, including 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 Schools (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia), all issuing IFBs and RFPs for annual or multi-year food supply contracts through school nutrition programs. State-level buyers include the Georgia Department of Education and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The geographic concentration is heavy in Georgia and includes Texas, California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Schools' fresh produce IFB for the 2026-27 school year (due June 26, 2026) covering over 200 line items of apples, berries, vegetables, and specialty produce; the County of Santa Clara, California ITB for dried fruits and nuts to supply correctional food services (due February 5, 2026); and Douglas County School System's RFP for food supply and distribution services supporting approximately 32,000 meals daily across 32 schools with an estimated annual expenditure of approximately $9,000,000 (due February 18, 2026). Given the mismatch between the code's nominal commodity and actual procurement activity, this code warrants review for data integrity before pursuing opportunities under it.
