UNSPSC 50324947: Dried spring bright nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as spring bright nectarines that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50324947 Dried spring bright nectarines is a Commodity code that covers dried stone fruits for institutional food service and nutrition programs. State and local governments procuring under this code are primarily school districts and correctional departments purchasing dried fruits as component ingredients or standalone items for cafeteria menus and meal preparation. The work involves sourcing dried nectarines and similar dried fruit products that meet USDA quality grades, food safety certifications (HACCP plans, USDA compliance), and nutritional compliance with the Buy American Provision of the Richard B. Russell National School Lunch Act, which requires minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products. Vendors must meet food service delivery and cold chain management standards, maintain insurance coverage (typically $500,000 to $1 million commercial general liability), and comply with state and federal food safety regulations and debarment verification requirements.

The most recent activity shows school districts and state criminal justice departments as the primary issuing bodies. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce across the 2026–27 school year with bids due June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items including multiple fruit and vegetable categories; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Board of Education issued a commodities bid (BNB053266) on June 2, 2026, due June 26, 2026, covering 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued IFB No. 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, for cafeteria food products covering approximately 382 line items across five geographic areas in Texas, with the response deadline extended to May 4, 2026. The State of Georgia issued a food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) on May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026. Recent opportunities concentrate in the Southeast (Georgia, Connecticut) and Texas, with school nutrition programs and state corrections departments driving demand. Dried fruits like those covered under this code appear as component items within broader fresh and processed produce procurements rather than as standalone, high-volume line items in the available documentation.
