UNSPSC 50324937: Dried red jim nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as red jim nectarines that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324937 Dried red jim nectarines is a Commodity code that frames state and local procurement of dried stone fruits and specialty dried fruit products for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. Recent solicitations show school districts and state agencies buying fresh and dried produce under broader commodity contracts that encompass multiple fruit and vegetable lines; dried nectarines, prunes, and similar specialty dried fruits appear as line items within larger fresh-produce and institutional-food-supply agreements rather than as standalone procurements. Issuing bodies include county and city school boards (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state departments and agencies (Georgia Department of Education, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal procurement offices acting on behalf of nutrition centers. The work is narrowly specialized—vendors must meet USDA grade standards, provide HACCP plans and food-safety certifications, comply with Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products, and deliver on fixed-price contracts with firm pricing for twelve-month terms.

Geographic activity centers in Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut based on recent postings, with Texas showing activity across multiple correctional facilities. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27 (Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia, IFB, due June 26, 2026), which solicited over 200 fresh-produce line items for school nutrition with three delivery locations; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Cafeteria Food Products procurement (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026), which encompassed approximately 382 line items across protein, dairy, grain, and produce categories for delivery to six TDCJ distribution points; and a TDCJ-specific Prunes procurement (Bid IW236532, due February 20, 2026) calling for U.S. Grade B dried prunes in 60–70 count size for the Corpus Christi location. All require comprehensive vendor compliance documentation, insurance, and adherence to Buy American and USDA standards, with awards typically made to single or multiple vendors based on best value and pricing.
