UNSPSC 50325805: Dried autumn giant plums

The variety of plums known as autumn giant plums that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325805 Dried autumn giant plums, a Commodity code, has generated minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific scope. The code nominally describes a single dried fruit product type, yet recent state and local solicitations tagged under it do not center on dried plums or autumn giant varieties. One solicitation—a Texas Department of Criminal Justice bid (IW236532) issued in February 2026—explicitly called for whole, pitted, dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality, 60–70 count size, packed in sealed food-grade polybags with boxes containing 25 pounds each and a minimum order of 1,400 boxes for Delivery Area 1. That procurement is closed as of its February 20, 2026 due date. Beyond that single prune-specific opportunity, the remaining opportunities in the recent block address fresh produce, eggs, comprehensive grocery supply, and cafeteria food products—categories that fall outside the dried plum or dried fruit commodity focus. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the broader food-supply opportunities tagged under it suggests either tagging inconsistency or that dried autumn giant plums do not constitute a significant, separately solicited category within state and local school nutrition, correctional, or institutional food procurement.

The few opportunities nominally related to dried fruits appear within larger institutional food service procurements. The Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department issued an ITB (ITBPRCFY260617) in January 2026 for dried fruits and nuts to serve a correctional facility, which included dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix on a five-year contract with local-business preference, but dried plums were not listed among the line items. School districts across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia solicited fresh produce, grocery items, and food supply contracts (Hancock County, Bridgeport, Liberty County, Rockwood R-VI, Douglas County, Fairfax County, and Savannah-Chatham), but none of these RFPs, RFQs, or IFBs specified dried plums as a discrete line item or commodity. The narrowness and misalignment of recent activity suggest the code warrants monitoring for future corrections in state and local tagging, but current pipeline activity does not support pursuit.
