UNSPSC 50325817: Dried burgundy plums

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

UNSPSC 50325817 Dried burgundy plums is a Commodity code that frames a narrow product line — whole, pitted dried prunes in specific grades and pack sizes — rather than a broad grocery category. State and local governments procure dried plums almost exclusively through school nutrition programs and corrections food services, typically as components of larger produce or commodity food contracts. The code shows limited standalone activity; most recent opportunities tag dried fruit and nuts together (as in Santa Clara County's correctional facility dried fruits and nuts procurement) or embed dried plums within master grocery or annual food supply solicitations spanning hundreds of line items. School districts and county corrections departments are the primary issuing bodies, with occasional state-level participation through statewide food service contracts.

Recent activity clusters in Georgia, Texas, and California. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued a specific solicitation (IW236532) for whole, pitted dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality, 60–70 count size, in 25-pound boxes with a minimum order of 1,400 boxes for its Corpus location, with a revised due date of February 20, 2026; this represents one of the few standalone dried-plum opportunities in the recent dataset. Broader food service contracts regularly include dried fruit line items within larger produce or commodity portfolios—the Douglas County School System's $9 million annual food supply contract, Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 solicitation, Rockwood School District's 900-plus-line-item grocery procurement, and Santa Clara County's dried fruits and nuts contract for correctional food services all point to fragmented demand across multiple school districts and county systems. Geographic concentration is light; most activity appears in the Southeast (Georgia, South Carolina), South-Central (Texas), and Western (California) jurisdictions. Standalone dried-plum opportunities are infrequent enough that pursuing this code profitably typically requires anchoring to larger food-service distributor relationships or positioning as a line-item supplier within master grocery or commodity aggregations.
