UNSPSC 50331588: Dried organic twenty ounce apples

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

UNSPSC 50331588 Dried organic twenty ounce apples is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity under the code's nominal label. Recent opportunities in the dataset are tagged with this code but solicited fresh produce, frozen foods, dairy products, proteins, and broad grocery assortments for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and food service operations—not dried organic apples specifically. The code shows no recent state and local opportunities for dried organic apples as a standalone product line, and the few opportunities that touch on dried fruits (such as a Santa Clara County solicitation for dried fruits and nuts to support correctional-facility food services) specify dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blends, walnuts, and pecans, not apples.

State and local school nutrition programs and correctional-food-service agencies are the primary issuing bodies under the broader grocery and fresh-produce codes to which this commodity has been tagged, including Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia), City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), State of Georgia, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), Douglas County School System (Georgia), and Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department (California). Geographic concentration spans Georgia, Connecticut, Texas, Virginia, Missouri, and California, with Georgia showing the heaviest recent activity. The code's nominal specification does not align with demonstrated state and local purchasing patterns, suggesting that this commodity code assignment may reflect a data-entry or classification error rather than actual procurement demand for dried organic twenty-ounce apples.
