UNSPSC 50324911: Dried big john nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as big john nectarines that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324911 Dried big john nectarines is a Commodity code. Recent state and local opportunities tagged with this code reveal a mismatch: the code nominally covers a specific dried-fruit product, but the opportunities actually solicited span broad fresh and processed food procurement for school nutrition programs and institutional foodservice. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce for the 2026–27 school year under IFB #SN002-2027, encompassing over 200 line items including apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus fruits, and specialty items—not dried nectarines. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut and the State of Georgia similarly posted commodities and food-supplies solicitations covering eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and mixed produce. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued multiple bids for cafeteria food products (IFB No. 304T-26-300CF) and whole dried prunes (Bid No. IW236532), but neither targeted dried nectarines specifically. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County, Bridgeport), state departments (Georgia, Texas TDCJ), and municipal procurement offices, typically through IFB notice types with Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content in processed items.

Geographic activity concentrates in the South and Mid-Atlantic: Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut have posted the most recent opportunities. All recent solicitations enforce Buy American requirements and specify delivery to institutional foodservice locations (school nutrition centers, TDCJ warehouses, state facilities) with firm fixed pricing and transportation prepaid on FOB Destination terms. Response dates cluster in June 2026, with Hancock County's bid opening scheduled for June 29, 2026, and Bridgeport's electronic submission deadline of June 26, 2026. Vendors must provide HACCP plans, E-Verify authorization, USDA compliance documentation, and commercial general liability insurance. The code shows no recent activity specifically targeting dried big john nectarines; opportunities posting under this code are actually broad institutional food procurement where dried nectarines may be one line item among hundreds, if present at all.
