UNSPSC 50325861: Dried queen rosa plums

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

UNSPSC 50325861 Dried queen rosa plums is a Commodity code representing dried stone fruits procured by state and local school nutrition programs and correctional facilities, grounded in fresh produce and processed food supply contracts that school districts and state agencies actually soliciting under this code are buying. State and local governments acquire dried plums alongside broader fresh and processed food portfolios to supply child nutrition programs, institutional food service operations, and correctional facilities. The mix of issuing bodies includes independent school districts (notably Hancock County Schools in Georgia), municipal school boards (City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases on behalf of the Board of Education), state corrections departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and broader state commodity procurement programs (State of Georgia).

Recent opportunities show activity concentrated in the Southeast and Texas. Hancock County Board of Education in Sparta, Georgia posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items for the 2026-27 school year with a June 26, 2026 response deadline; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut sought bids on 115 commodity line items including fruit and vegetable products with electronic submission due June 26, 2026; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued Bid No. IW236532 in April 2026 for whole, pitted, dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality (60-70 count) in 25-pound boxes with a minimum order of 1,400 boxes for Corpus Christi delivery. All school nutrition solicitations impose Buy American domestic-content requirements (minimum 51 percent for processed products), require HACCP plans or USDA compliance, and award to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder or multiple vendors at the buyer's discretion. State and local sources often tag dried fruit procurement under broader commodity codes, and dried plum activity appears episodic rather than sustained across multiple jurisdictions in recent postings.
