UNSPSC 50331564: Dried organic pink lady apples

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

UNSPSC 50331564 Dried organic pink lady apples, a Commodity code, frames produce commonly procured by school districts and state correctional facilities for nutrition programs and cafeteria operations. State and local governments buy dried and fresh produce under this code as part of broader food-service solicitations that encompass multiple fruit and vegetable line items alongside proteins, dairy, and staple commodities. The recent opportunities show school nutrition departments and state agencies issuing IFBs and RFQs for mixed fresh and processed produce inventories rather than single-item specialty buys; dried fruit appears as one line item among dozens in multi-category food solicitations. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia), municipal education departments (City of Bridgeport Board of Education), state departments (Georgia and Texas), and correctional facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content for processed products are standard across school nutrition purchases, and vendors must provide HACCP plans, nutritional analyses, USDA compliance documentation, and product formulation statements.

Activity clusters in Georgia and Texas. Hancock County Schools (Sparta, Georgia) posted an IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items including multiple apple varieties with delivery to three school sites and a due date of June 26, 2026.
