UNSPSC 50325717 Dried flavorich plucot is a Commodity code that describes specialized dried fruit products sold to state and local nutrition and food service programs. State and local buyers under this code procure dried fruits—including dried plucots, prunes, raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit blends—for school nutrition programs, correctional facility food services, and other institutional food operations. Recent solicitations show school districts and correctional authorities buying dried fruits as components of meal programs, snacks, and food service staples, often bundled with fresh produce, frozen entrees, and other commodities in broader nutrition contracts. The issuing bodies are predominantly K–12 school districts and county school systems, supplemented by state correctional agencies and county detention facilities; school districts dominate the activity, with Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, and California jurisdictions showing recent procurement volume.

Geographic concentration appears strongest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Connecticut and California. Representative recent opportunities include the County of Santa Clara, California (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, January 28, 2026 posting, due February 5, 2026) soliciting dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans for Elmwood Correctional Facility food services on a five-year contract with firm Year 1 pricing and capped annual increases thereafter; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (Bid No. IW236532, April 23, 2026 posting, due February 20, 2026) requesting whole, pitted, dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality with 1,400-box minimum order; and multiple Georgia school districts including Liberty County Board of Education (IFB due April 29, 2026) and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Bid 26-34, due April 23, 2026) incorporating dried fruits into comprehensive annual fresh produce and prepared food contracts for school nutrition programs.
