UNSPSC 50326502: Dried black sapotes

The variety of sapotes known as black sapotes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50326502 Dried black sapotes is a Commodity code that does not align with current state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for dried black sapotes. The twelve most recent contracts posted under or near this code span school nutrition and correctional facility food services, encompassing fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, leafy greens), frozen proteins (chicken, beef, fish), dairy products, grains, dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, prunes), nuts (walnuts, pecans), eggs, and full-line grocery and food distribution services. None of these solicitations name dried black sapotes as a line item or deliverable. The code's narrow product specification does not match the broad commodity categories or multi-item baskets that school districts, county boards of education, and correctional facilities are actually purchasing under food service procurement codes.

School districts dominate issuing activity, with recent bids posted by Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with additional activity in Connecticut, Virginia, Missouri, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026) spanning over 200 line items across multiple produce categories with delivery to three school locations, and the County of Santa Clara's ITB for dried fruits and nuts (due February 5, 2026) requiring raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, walnuts, and pecans for correctional food services. The absence of dried black sapote bids suggests either minimal demand under this specific commodity code, misclassification of opportunities in the procurement database, or fulfillment through broader grocery or specialty-produce contracts that do not isolate this item as a separate line.
