UNSPSC 50331810: Dried organic bagatelle barberries

The variety of organic barberries known as organic bagatelle barberries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50331810 Dried organic bagatelle barberries, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual scope of state and local procurement activity captured in recent solicitations. The code nominally describes a single specialized dried fruit product, yet the recent opportunities posted under this classification encompass broad fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods for school nutrition and correctional facility food services — a mismatch indicating mistagging or category-drift in the underlying procurement records.

State and local issuing bodies active under this code include school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, and Douglas County School System in Georgia), county correctional systems (Santa Clara County Sheriff Department of Correction in California and Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state procurement divisions (Georgia and Texas). School nutrition programs dominate recent activity, with procurement emphasis on fixed-price annual contracts for meal production across elementary, middle, and high schools, often with renewal options spanning multiple years. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026, spanning over 200 line items of apples, berries, vegetables, and specialty fruits with delivery to three school sites), the City of Bridgeport Connecticut's IFB for commodities to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center (due June 26, 2026, covering 115 line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce), and Rockwood R-VI School District's solicitation for over 900 grocery items for the 2026-27 school year (due April 29, 2026, with daily service to schools and a central warehouse). Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia. Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content in processed products are standard across school nutrition contracts, and most solicitations mandate firm fixed pricing for the full contract term with formal delivery windows (typically 7:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on weekdays) and HACCP/food safety compliance. The code's recent activity reflects state and local governments' routine procurement of staple food supplies rather than the specific dried fruit commodity its UNSPSC designation implies.
