UNSPSC 50331522: Dried organic elstar apples

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

UNSPSC 50331522 Dried organic elstar apples is a Commodity code that covers specialty dried fruit products, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal direct solicitation for dried organic elstar apples specifically. School districts and correctional facilities represent the primary buyer categories for dried fruit products in the recent opportunity record, but they are soliciting dried fruits as components of broader fresh produce, grocery, or specialty food contracts rather than as standalone dried-apple line items. The Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 IFB for fresh produce spans over 200 line items across multiple apple varieties (Ambrosia, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp, Jazz) with no mention of dried elstar apples; similarly, the County of Santa Clara's February 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts to the Department of Correction specifies raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mixes but not dried elstar apples. Broader food-service solicitations from school districts in Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Texas reference canned and fresh fruits as part of cafeteria supply contracts, with no identified dried-elstar-specific line items. Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products appear consistently across school nutrition contracts, and HACCP food safety compliance and recall procedures are standard requirements.

Geographic activity clusters in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, with recent K-12 nutrition solicitations from Hancock County (Georgia), Liberty County (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County (Georgia), Rockwood R-VI (Missouri), Fairfax County (Virginia), and Douglas County (Georgia), alongside correctional-system dried-fruit procurement from Santa Clara County (California) and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. No recent opportunities explicitly name dried organic elstar apples as a solicited commodity, and the code shows limited direct procurement relevance to current state and local contracting activity as represented in the record.
