UNSPSC 50325809: Dried betty anne plums

The variety of plums known as betty anne plums that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325809 Dried betty anne plums is a Commodity-level code covering dried plum products procured by state and local institutions, primarily school districts and corrections departments. Recent solicitations show state and local buyers purchasing dried prunes and dried plum products as components of broader food-service contracts, though the code itself appears narrowly subscribed compared to related dried-fruit categories. School nutrition programs comprise the dominant use case, with districts sourcing dried fruits as cafeteria staples and snack items; corrections departments represent a secondary but recurring buyer. The work does not involve manufacturing, processing, or value-added transformation—it is straightforward product procurement and delivery to institutional food-service warehouses and individual school sites.

School districts across Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia dominate recent activity under or closely related to this code, with the Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia) all posting solicitations for fresh produce, grocery items, and dried-fruit components in the first half of 2026. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Santa Clara County Department of Correction represent institutional corrections buyers. A representative recent opportunity is the County of Santa Clara's ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 (posted January 28, 2026, due February 5, 2026) for dried fruits and nuts including dried cranberries and tropical fruit mix to supply the Elmwood Correctional Facility on a five-year contract with firm pricing in Year 1 and capped annual increases in Years 2–5; Santa Clara applied a five percent local business preference and required vendors to supply all five line items on an all-or-none basis. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice Bid No. IW236532 (posted April 23, 2026, due February 20, 2026) specifically solicited whole, pitted, dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality, 60–70 count size, 25-pound boxes, with a minimum order quantity of 1,400 boxes for Delivery Area 1 at a TDCJ warehouse location. Both opportunities required FOB Destination delivery, firm fixed pricing, compliance with USDA grade and food-safety standards, and formal compliance certifications. Buy American provisions feature consistently across school-district opportunities, and most solicitations require vendors to hold commercial general liability insurance of at least $1 million.
