UNSPSC 50331539: Dried organic honeycrisp apples

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

UNSPSC 50331539 Dried organic honeycrisp apples is a Commodity code that captures fresh and processed fruit products procured by state and local education and corrections agencies. Recent solicitations under this code center on school nutrition programs sourcing fresh produce as part of multi-item grocery and food-service contracts, with dried fruit appearing in institutional food procurement for correctional facilities. The Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia solicited fresh produce including Honey Crisp apples across multiple varieties under IFB #SN002-2027 (response deadline June 26, 2026), and the County of Santa Clara, California solicited dried fruits including dried cranberries and tropical fruit mix for its correctional facility food services under ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 (response deadline February 5, 2026). School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with solicitations from Hancock County Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, and Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, alongside county-level corrections procurement from Santa Clara County and state-level food procurement from Georgia and Texas (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). The code also captures broader food-service contracts for which fresh and processed fruit are line items rather than the primary solicitation focus.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with secondary activity in California, Texas, Virginia, Connecticut, and Missouri.
