UNSPSC 50331501: Dried organic akane apples

The variety of organic apples known as organic akane apples that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50331501 Dried organic akane apples is a Commodity code that nominally addresses a narrow product line, but the recent opportunities block shows no direct procurement activity for this item. The most recent state and local solicitations under or near this code — posted between April and June 2026 — focus on fresh produce, cafeteria food products, and dried fruits in the aggregate, not dried organic akane apples specifically. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including multiple apple varieties (Ambrosia, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz) but not akane; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut sought bids on commodities including fruit and vegetable products for school nutrition; the State of Georgia posted a broad food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB for cafeteria food products covering proteins, dairy, grains, and canned and fresh vegetables. The Texas TDCJ also solicited whole, pitted, dried prunes in a separate bid. The issuing bodies span school districts, municipal departments, state agencies, and correctional departments, all operating under Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content thresholds for processed foods.

Geographic activity centers on Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas based on recent postings. The Hancock County Schools opportunity (Georgia) closed June 26, 2026, with deliveries to three school sites and a contract period running July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027. The Bridgeport, Connecticut IFB also closed June 26, 2026, with ongoing deliveries to the Thomas E. Carroll Nutrition Center and a term through June 30, 2027. The State of Georgia's food and supplies solicitation closed June 22, 2026. The Texas Comptroller issued an IFB on behalf of TDCJ for cafeteria food products with a final due date of May 4, 2026, covering six distribution points across Texas with a contract term extending through August 31, 2027. However, no recent state or local opportunity explicitly solicits dried organic akane apples; the code shows little directly relevant recent activity, and the mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the broader fresh-and-processed-food opportunities tagged to it suggests this Commodity code may receive sporadic procurement attention in state and local markets.
