UNSPSC 50332004: Dried organic cherokee blackberries

The variety of organic blackberries known as organic cherokee blackberries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50332004 Dried organic cherokee blackberries, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity in the sourced opportunities. The recent solicitations tag food procurement across multiple categories—fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, condiments, and prepared entrees for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities—but none specifically identify dried organic cherokee blackberries or even dried blackberries as a line item. The county of Santa Clara ITB for dried fruits and nuts (ITBPRCFY260617, due February 5, 2026) specifies dried raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blend, walnuts, and pecans, with no mention of blackberries. School districts in Georgia, Connecticut, Missouri, and Virginia soliciting fresh and frozen produce for the 2026–27 school year list dozens of fruit categories—apples, bananas, berries, citrus, melons, and specialty items—but the records do not isolate blackberries as a distinct line item or specify dried organic varieties. The code's nominal scope suggests a highly specialized agricultural commodity that does not appear to be actively procured through the state and local notices reviewed.

State and local procurement in the broader fresh produce, dried fruit, and food-service categories is concentrated among school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood School District in Missouri, Liberty County and Savannah-Chatham County boards in Georgia, Douglas County and Bridgeport board of education in Connecticut) and correction departments (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department, Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Geographic activity spans Georgia, Virginia, Connecticut, Missouri, Texas, and California, with school nutrition contracts dominating across all jurisdictions. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' fresh produce IFB (due June 26, 2026) encompassing over 200 produce line items with July 2026 performance start, Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026) requiring minimum 76-item bids for 45 schools plus distribution centers, and Douglas County School System's fresh produce and eggs RFP through GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026) serving 30 districts with estimated annual spending of $5.5 million across two geographic areas. The code shows little relevant recent activity; procurement professionals pursuing this commodity should verify whether state and local buyers source dried organic blackberries through broader produce categories, cooperative purchasing networks, or specialty-item channels not reflected in current public solicitations.
