UNSPSC 50331552: Dried organic laxton apples

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

UNSPSC 50331552 Dried organic laxton apples is a Commodity code that does not match the actual work being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The posted opportunities consistently tag fresh produce contracts spanning dozens of fruit and vegetable items — apples in multiple varieties (Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, Ambrosia), berries, citrus, melons, and leafy greens — alongside proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. The source also includes a single dried-fruit procurement (Santa Clara County requesting dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans) and one isolated reference to whole pitted dried prunes from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. No recent opportunity explicitly solicits dried organic laxton apples specifically. The code's narrow commodity designation does not reflect the broad, mixed-produce scope of the contracts actually being advertised.

School districts drive the bulk of recent activity under this code's associated family and class codes, with issuing bodies including Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia), alongside the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut, the State of Georgia, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, and Santa Clara County. Geographic concentration is evident in Georgia and the broader Southeast, with secondary activity in Texas, Connecticut, Missouri, and California. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026) spanning over 200 line items for delivery to three school sites, Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract IFB (due April 27, 2026) requiring 76-item minimum participation for weekly delivery to 45 schools and seven distribution kitchens, and Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs (due March 4, 2026) covering 30 districts across two geographic areas with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending. All solicitations require Buy American compliance, firm fixed pricing for the contract term, HACCP or food safety documentation, and compliance with federal school lunch program nutrition standards.
