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

UNSPSC 50325873 Dried santa rosa plums is a Commodity code covering dried fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily for school nutrition programs and correctional facility food services. The recent opportunities show school districts and state correctional agencies buying dried prunes and plums as components of broader produce and food commodity contracts, typically bundled with fresh produce, proteins, dairy, and staple foods for cafeteria operations. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state education purchasing offices (City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases), state departments (Georgia statewide procurement), and state correctional agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). School nutrition programs represent the primary end-user, with USDA compliance and Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content for processed products appearing across all solicitations.
