UNSPSC 50325369: Dried vista peaches

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

UNSPSC 50325369 Dried vista peaches, a Commodity code, covers dried fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily for school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations. Recent solicitations show school districts and state correctional agencies buying dried fruit as ingredient items within broader cafeteria and food-service contracts, though the code's nominal scope does not align closely with the opportunities presented. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) both solicited fresh and processed produce for nutrition programs under IFBs in June 2026, but these opportunities focused on fresh produce delivery across 200+ line items rather than dried peaches specifically. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued a separate IFB for whole, pitted dried prunes in February 2026—a dried-fruit commodity closely related to dried peaches—with U.S. Grade B specifications and 25-pound box packaging for a minimum order of 1,400 boxes to the Corpus Christi location. State and local issuing bodies across this code span school districts, state corrections agencies, and municipal nutrition centers, with delivery requirements to multiple institutional sites and compliance obligations including USDA grade certification, Buy American domestic-content minimums (typically 51 percent for processed products), HACCP plans, and comprehensive insurance.

Activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, and Connecticut, with the most recent and largest volume solicitation being the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts IFB for cafeteria food products on behalf of TDCJ—covering 382 line items across five geographic distribution areas with delivery to six warehouse locations and an initial contract term through August 31, 2027, plus two optional one-year renewals. Hancock County Schools' produce IFB (due June 26, 2026) and the City of Bridgeport's commodities solicitation (due June 26, 2026) represent typical school-district activity, both requiring destination freight prepaid, firm-fixed pricing for the contract year, electronic or sealed-bid submission, and award to lowest responsive and responsible bidder or multiple vendors at issuer discretion. The State of Georgia issued a parallel food-supplies solicitation in May 2026 with full scope contained in an attached 12-megabyte document. A mismatch exists between the code's nominal scope (dried vista peaches) and recent opportunities, which cluster around broader fresh and dried-fruit procurement within multi-category food service contracts rather than dried peaches as a standalone commodity line.
