UNSPSC 50325512: Dried triumph persimmons

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

UNSPSC 50325512 Dried triumph persimmons is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of dried fruit products for food service and institutional nutrition programs. Recent solicitations show that school districts, state corrections agencies, and municipal education departments are purchasing dried and fresh produce — including dried prunes, fresh apples, berries, root vegetables, and other commodity items — as part of broader nutrition contracts under Buy American compliance requirements. The issuing bodies are primarily school nutrition programs within county boards of education and city departments of public purchases, along with state correctional departments that procure food supplies for institutional cafeterias. Vendors must meet USDA grading standards, provide HACCP or equivalent safety documentation, maintain appropriate insurance coverage (typically $500,000 to $1 million commercial general liability), and commit to firm pricing over the contract term, which usually runs one fiscal or calendar year with optional renewal periods.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. Hancock County Schools in Georgia posted an IFB on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items with delivery to three school sites and a response deadline of June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut issued a commodities bid on June 2, 2026, for 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products due June 26, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a broader food supplies solicitation on May 15, 2026, with a June 22 response date. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued two separate food procurement bids: a cafeteria food products IFB (304T26300CF) with approximately 382 line items and an extended response deadline of May 4, 2026, and an earlier prune-specific bid (IW236532) with a February 20, 2026, response date. All school nutrition contracts enforce the Buy American requirement (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed goods) and award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; single or multiple vendor awards are common. Response cycles are compressed, typically two to three weeks from posting to submission.
