UNSPSC 50325860: Dried purple majesty plums

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

UNSPSC 50325860 Dried purple majesty plums is a Commodity code for dried fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily for institutional food service — school nutrition programs, state facilities, and correctional institutions. The code captures procurement of processed dried plums meeting USDA quality grades and packaging specifications, typically in bulk quantities with firm pricing and delivery to multiple designated locations. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under this code include school districts (both independent and county-level boards of education), state departments managing centralized procurement, and state agencies operating correctional facilities. School nutrition programs and institutional food service operations dominate the recent activity, with these buyers sourcing dried plums as part of broader commodities contracts that span proteins, grains, dairy, and fresh and processed produce under Buy American provisions.

Recent opportunities show the code seeing activity across multiple states. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-300CF in May 2026 for cafeteria food products to supply multiple warehouse locations, with a response deadline of May 4, 2026, encompassing approximately 382 line items including dried fruits as part of institutional food service. The same agency posted Bid No. IW236532 in April 2026 for whole, pitted, dried prunes (U.S. Grade B, 60–70 count size, 25-pound boxes) for delivery to a Corpus Christi location, with the amended deadline of February 20, 2026. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued IFB #SN002-2027 in June 2026 for fresh produce across the 2026–27 school year with a June 26, 2026 response date, and the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases sought commodities for its Board of Education Nutrition Center with an electronic submission deadline of June 26, 2026. All solicitations require compliance with Buy American provisions mandating minimum domestic content and HACCP or food safety certifications; pricing is firm fixed for the contract period with delivery to multiple designated school or institutional sites.
