UNSPSC 50332503: Dried organic bigarreu cherries

The variety of organic cherries known as organic bigarreu cherries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50332503 Dried organic bigarreu cherries (Commodity) does not reflect the current state and local procurement activity under this code. The recent opportunities tagged to this Commodity code span school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and multi-district cooperative purchasing, but the solicitations uniformly seek broad food-supply contracts—fresh produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods—rather than dried organic bigarreu cherries specifically. The code appears to capture a narrow, specialized fruit product that state and local buyers rarely procure in isolation; when dried fruits appear in recent opportunities, they occur as line items within larger food-supply RFPs or IFBs, or as part of specific correctional-facility nutrition programs.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, California, Connecticut, Missouri, and Texas school districts and public agencies. Issuing bodies include school nutrition programs (Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the County of Santa Clara, and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education. Representative solicitations include Hancock County Schools' IFB for Fresh Produce SY27 (due June 26, 2026, 200+ fresh-produce line items), Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (due April 27, 2026, grocery products across 76+ items for 45 schools), and Santa Clara County's ITB for Dried Fruits and Nuts (due February 5, 2026, targeting raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans for a detention facility on a five-year contract). The Douglas County School System's GEC Buying Cooperative RFP for Fresh Produce and Eggs (due March 4, 2026) spans 30 districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million. No opportunities specifically request dried organic bigarreu cherries; the code assignment appears to be a data-tagging anomaly rather than a reflection of actual procurement demand under this Commodity specification.
