UNSPSC 50331520: Dried organic earligold apples

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

UNSPSC 50331520 Dried organic earligold apples, a Commodity code, is narrowly represented in recent state and local procurement activity. The code's nominal scope encompasses dried apple products marketed under the Earligold varietal designation; however, the recent opportunities block shows minimal direct procurement of this specific product line. Instead, state and local jurisdictions are soliciting dried fruits more broadly — raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, and walnuts and pecans — under food service contracts for correctional facilities, school nutrition programs, and county food distribution. The County of Santa Clara, California, issued ITB ITBPRCFY260617 in January 2026 for dried fruits and nuts including raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix to supply the Elmwood Correctional Facility, specifying dried products on an all-or-none five-line-item basis with an annual commitment spanning five years at firm pricing. School districts across Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Texas, and Virginia are actively procuring fresh produce and grocery items for child nutrition programs, but solicitation language does not isolate dried organic apples as a line item; these opportunities list apples generically (Ambrosia, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz varieties) without specifying fresh versus dried or organic designation.

Issuing bodies under this code and related dried-fruit procurement are predominantly school districts (Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), a county correctional system (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office), and municipal departments (City of Bridgeport). The geographic spread of recent activity spans the Southeast (Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Texas, Virginia, California), with the most granular dried-fruit opportunity centered in California. State-level procurement from Georgia and Texas addresses food service broadly but does not isolate dried organic apples as a discrete commodity line. No recent opportunities in the block explicitly solicit dried organic earligold apples by name or varietal specification, indicating this specific UNSPSC commodity sees limited direct state and local market activity.
