UNSPSC 50324943: Dried ruby sweet nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as ruby sweet nectarines that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324943 Dried ruby sweet nectarines, a Commodity code, shows limited recent state and local procurement activity directly tied to the specific product category. The code nominally describes a single dried-fruit product line, but recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect broader food-service procurement for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities rather than dried nectarines in particular. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state corrections departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state procurement divisions acting on behalf of multiple agencies. The work being bought encompasses fresh and processed produce for cafeteria and nutrition centers, with sourcing requirements emphasizing Buy American compliance (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), USDA grading and certification, HACCP food-safety protocols, and firm-fixed pricing for multi-year contract terms.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Connecticut. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB No. 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products (proteins, specialty entrees, dairy, grains, and produce) with FOB Destination delivery to six TDCJ warehouse locations and a contract term through August 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. Hancock County Board of Education, Georgia, posted IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with delivery to three school sites and a response deadline of June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases released IFB BNB053266 on June 2, 2026, for commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center, with electronic submissions due June 26, 2026, and MBE/CBE certifications applicable under city ordinance. The State of Georgia issued a general food-supplies solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) on May 15, 2026, with a June 22 due date. No recent opportunities explicitly specify dried nectarines as a line item; the code's recent activity reflects institutional food purchasing at the broader commodity level rather than narrow product-specific demand.
