UNSPSC 50324944: Dried ruddy jewel nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as ruddy jewel nectarines that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324944 Dried ruddy jewel nectarines is a Commodity code that covers single dried fruit products sold to state and local public bodies, principally school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations. State and local procurement under this code remains sparse and episodic; the recent opportunities block shows no active solicitations specifically targeting dried nectarines. The broader commodity category — dried and fresh produce for school cafeterias and state institutional food service — generates regular solicitation activity across school districts, state departments, and correctional systems, but individual fruit lines rarely appear as standalone line items. When dried nectarines do appear, they are embedded within larger fresh-produce or institutional-food RFQs and IFBs that span hundreds of line items across vegetables, grains, proteins, and other produce categories.

School districts in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas dominate recent produce solicitation activity. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items across multiple apple, berry, vegetable, and specialty fruit varieties for the 2026–27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities under IFB BNB053266, posted June 2, 2026, with electronic bids due June 26, 2026, for 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including canned and fresh fruits and vegetables, with awards made by line item to the lowest responsive bidder. All three solicitations enforce Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products and require firm-fixed pricing inclusive of transportation and delivery. No solicitations in the recent-opportunities block specifically name dried nectarines as a solicited item, indicating minimal current procurement activity under this specific Commodity code.
