UNSPSC 50325361: Dried sugar lady peaches

The variety of peaches known as sugar lady peaches that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325361 Dried sugar lady peaches (Commodity) encompasses dried-fruit procurement for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities, where state and local governments solicit fresh and processed produce—including dried fruits, canned vegetables, and specialty items—to supply institutional food service operations. Recent school district and state agency solicitations under this code reveal a focus on dried and preserved fruits as line items within larger fresh and processed produce contracts rather than standalone dried-peach-specific procurements. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state departments (Georgia and Texas), and correctional agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). These entities solicit produce and food products on an annual or multi-year cycle to support nutrition centers and inmate feeding operations, with sealed-bid IFBs as the dominant notice type and contract terms typically running one to three years with optional renewals.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut. Hancock County Schools in Georgia posted IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, with a June 26, 2026 response deadline, seeking over 200 fresh produce line items (including fresh fruit) for delivery to three school sites under a July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 contract term. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited commodities including fruit and vegetable products on June 2, 2026, with a June 26, 2026 deadline and a contract term through June 30, 2027. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of TDCJ, issued IFB 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026 (extended from April 21), covering approximately 382 food line items across multiple categories with delivery to six TDCJ distribution points; separate from that, TDCJ issued Bid No. IW236532 for whole pitted dried prunes in February 2026. All school and state nutrition solicitations impose Buy American requirements (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products) and require HACCP plans, nutritional compliance, and USDA grade certification. MBE/CBE certifications apply in Connecticut under local ordinance.
