UNSPSC 50331624: Dried organic imperial apricots

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

UNSPSC 50331624 Dried organic imperial apricots, a Commodity code, shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with the code's specific product scope. The available recent opportunities in the source do not include solicitations for dried organic imperial apricots; instead, the posted opportunities cover broader food service categories such as fresh produce, general grocery commodities, dried fruits and nuts (which include raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans but not apricots specifically), and complete food supply and distribution services for schools, correctional facilities, and other institutional clients. The single opportunity most closely related to the code — Santa Clara County's January 2026 Invitation to Bids for dried fruits and nuts serving the Elmwood Correctional Facility — specifies raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans on an all-or-none basis with five-year terms and annual price adjustments, but does not include dried apricots as a line item. This mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual content of recent solicitations suggests that dried organic imperial apricots, as a standalone commodity, are either procured infrequently at the state and local level or bundled within broader dried-fruit or snack categories that do not break out apricot-specific purchasing.

The broader food procurement environment shows sustained activity across school nutrition programs, state departments, and correctional facilities in Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Missouri, Virginia, and California, with issuing bodies including school districts (Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state agencies (Georgia, Texas Comptroller/TDCJ), municipalities (City of Bridgeport), and county sheriffs' departments (Santa Clara County). These opportunities typically feature IFBs and RFPs with response dates concentrated in February through June 2026, multi-hundred-line-item scopes spanning fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods, Buy American compliance requirements with 51 percent domestic content thresholds, and firm-fixed pricing structures. The code itself, however, does not appear in active procurement use for the specific product of dried organic imperial apricots at the state and local level in the sample provided.
