UNSPSC 50331601: Dried organic ambercot apricots

The variety of organic apricots known as organic ambercot apricots that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50331601 Dried organic ambercot apricots is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local solicitations, represents a narrow slice of school nutrition procurement activity rather than a primary category of ongoing institutional food sourcing. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show school districts and state agencies procuring fresh and processed produce for cafeteria operations, but dried apricots appear incidentally if at all within those broader fresh-produce and commodity-food scopes. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items of apples, berries, vegetables, melons, citrus, and specialty produce for the 2026–27 school year, with delivery to three school locations. The City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) Board of Education Nutrition Center solicited 115 line items across eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products through RFQ due June 26, 2026. The State of Georgia and Texas Department of Criminal Justice also issued RFQs and IFBs for food commodities and cafeteria supplies in the May–June 2026 window, but these solicitations focused on fresh produce, frozen entrees, dairy, proteins, and staple items rather than specific dried fruit varieties. The issuing bodies are primarily school districts and state departments of corrections or criminal justice, with secondary activity from state food-supply offices.

Geographic activity clusters in Georgia and Texas, with additional solicitations from Connecticut and multistate procurement through state offices. Hancock County Schools (Sparta, Georgia) and the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) represent recent district-level procurement; the State of Georgia and Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) represent state-level buyers. The Hancock County IFB (due June 26, 2026) and Bridgeport RFQ (due June 26, 2026) are the most recently posted opportunities with firm response deadlines, both reflecting the 2026–27 school nutrition cycle. The TDCJ's cafeteria food products IFB (originally due April 21, 2026, extended via addendum to May 4, 2026) and an earlier TDCJ dried-prunes procurement (IW236532, due February 20, 2026) suggest ongoing institutional food sourcing but do not confirm active market demand for dried apricots as a standalone line item. The code shows minimal recent activity specifically targeting dried organic apricots; most solicitations cluster dried fruit (if at all) within broader commodity aggregates rather than itemizing specialty dried fruits individually.
