UNSPSC 50325506: Dried giant fuyu persimmons

The variety of persimmons known as giant fuyu persimmons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325506 Dried giant fuyu persimmons (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. School districts, counties, and state agencies are actively procuring fresh produce, dried fruits, and comprehensive food supply services for child nutrition programs, but none of the 12 recent opportunities in the dataset specifically identify dried giant fuyu persimmons or even dried persimmons as line items. The Commodity code nominally describes a single specialty dried fruit product, yet the actual procurement landscape under related food codes shows school nutrition departments and corrections departments buying diverse commodity foods in bulk—fresh apples, berries, vegetables, proteins, grains, and mixed dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, walnuts, and pecans)—but not persimmons specifically.

The only tangentially relevant opportunity is County of Santa Clara's ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 (due February 5, 2026), which solicited dried fruits including dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mixes for the Elmwood Correctional Facility food service, but persimmons were not among the listed items. Broader food procurement under related codes shows school districts across Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Virginia, and Texas, along with state departments and county systems, regularly issuing IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce, grocery staples, and food supply services with response dates throughout early 2026. The absence of dried persimmon line items across all 12 recent opportunities—which collectively span elementary through high school nutrition, correctional facilities, and state warehouse distribution—suggests minimal current demand for this specific commodity in state and local procurement.
