UNSPSC 50331525: Dried organic fuji apples

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

UNSPSC 50331525 Dried organic Fuji apples, a Commodity code, encompasses dried apple products procured by state and local governments primarily for institutional food service — most commonly school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state agency cafeterias. Recent solicitations show this code applied alongside fresh-produce buys and broader commodity food categories rather than as a standalone dried-fruit category; the Hancock County Schools Nutrition fresh produce IFB and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education nutrition center commodities bid both cite fresh apple varieties (Fuji among them) as line items within wider produce scopes, while the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB and dried-prunes solicitation reflect institutional food procurement patterns where dried fruits appear as commodity staples. State and local education and corrections agencies are the primary issuing bodies under this code, with school districts and state corrections departments driving the majority of recent activity.
