UNSPSC 50331609: Dried organic clutha gold apricots

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

UNSPSC 50331609 Dried organic clutha gold apricots (Commodity) represents a narrow product line that state and local governments procure primarily through consolidated food service contracts for school nutrition programs and correctional facility food services. Recent solicitations show school districts and county procurement offices bundling dried apricots into broader produce and commodity bids rather than issuing standalone procurements for this single product. The work involves supplying dried fruit products that meet USDA grade and nutritional specifications, comply with Buy American provisions requiring domestic sourcing or at least 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed items, and arrive in specified case quantities and portion sizes to designated delivery points on firm-fixed pricing for annual or multi-year contract terms.

Issuing bodies are predominantly K–12 school districts (including Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri) and county corrections departments (Santa Clara County, California). School nutrition programs dominate activity under this code. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and the Southeast, with secondary activity in California and the broader Mid-Atlantic region. Representative recent opportunities include the County of Santa Clara's ITB-PRC-FY26-0617 for dried fruits and nuts (including dried cranberries and tropical fruit mix alongside raisins, walnuts, and pecans) issued January 28, 2026, with responses due February 5, 2026, on an all-or-none basis for a five-year term at the Elmwood Correctional Facility; Hancock County Schools' IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce (SY27) posted June 10, 2026, with bids due June 26, 2026, encompassing over 200 line items of fresh and processed fruits and vegetables for school delivery; and the Rockwood R-VI School District's bid for over 900 grocery line items (CHILDNUTRITIONSERVICESGROCERYITEMS20262027) posted March 31, 2026, with electronic submissions due April 29, 2026, spanning snacks, fruits, vegetables, and prepared entrees for daily breakfast and lunch service across approximately 19,000 students.
