UNSPSC 50326103: Dried smyrna quince

The variety of quince known as smyrna quince that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50326103 Dried smyrna quince is a Commodity code that does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific dried fruit product, but the recent opportunities associated with it in this dataset span fresh produce, bulk grocery items, prepared foods, and mixed dried fruits and nuts—none of which isolate dried smyrna quince as a distinct procurement line item. The sourcing activity under this code is driven by school nutrition programs, correctional food services, and institutional cafeterias that buy dried fruits as part of broader commodity bundles rather than as standalone line items. When dried fruits appear in these opportunities, they are typically grouped with fresh produce, nuts, or general grocery supplies rather than called out by variety.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Georgia and surrounding states, with school districts dominating the buyer mix. The Douglas County School System (Georgia) issued an RFP for fresh produce and eggs on February 4, 2026, with a due date of March 4, 2026, targeting 30 school districts across two geographic areas. The Savannah-Chatham County Public School System issued Bid 26-34 for fresh produce on March 22, 2026, due April 23, 2026, covering 72 produce line items for 60 school sites. Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia) posted an IFB for food products on March 30, 2026, due April 29, 2026, encompassing over 400 items including fresh and frozen produce. Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) solicited a Master Grocery K-12 contract on April 6, 2026, due April 27, 2026. The County of Santa Clara, California issued an ITB for dried fruits and nuts on January 28, 2026, due February 5, 2026, requiring dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mixes, walnuts, and pecans on an all-or-none basis for correctional food services. Dried smyrna quince does not appear as a specified line item in any of these solicitations, and the code shows minimal independent procurement signal within the state and local market.
