UNSPSC 50332507: Dried organic black tartarian cherries

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

UNSPSC 50332507 Dried organic black tartarian cherries is a Commodity code that represents a narrow food-supply line item within school nutrition and correctional food service procurement. State and local governments rarely solicit this product directly by commodity name; the recent opportunities show that purchasing bodies source dried fruits as part of broader fresh produce, grocery, or specialty food contracts. When dried fruits appear as line items, they typically serve school cafeteria nutrition programs, correctional facility meal service, or county food operations alongside dozens or hundreds of other produce and protein items. The mix of issuing bodies spans school districts of varying sizes (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia), county government operations (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department of Correction in California), and state procurement offices coordinating multi-district cooperative purchasing vehicles. School nutrition programs dominate the activity, with buying patterns driven by Child Nutrition Program compliance requirements (Buy American provisions, USDA grade standards, nutritional limits on added sugars and fat content, HACCP protocols, and product recall accessibility). Correctional facilities represent a secondary but consistent segment, with facilities standardizing on shelf-stable dried fruits as cost-efficient, long-life meal components.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (Douglas County School System, Hancock County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System) and extends across California (Santa Clara County), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Connecticut (Bridgeport Board of Education), and Texas (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27 (Hancock County Board of Education, IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026), which listed over 200 fresh produce line items spanning berries and specialty fruits but did not isolate dried cherries as a specific bid item; DCSD SN26-004 Fresh Produce and Eggs (Douglas County School System via GEC Buying Cooperative, RFP, due March 4, 2026), covering approximately 72 produce line items across 30 school districts with estimated spending of $5.5 million combined but no explicit dried-fruit line; and County of Santa Clara Dried Fruits and Nuts (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026), which procured dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix for a correctional facility on a five-year contract with firm Year 1 pricing and optional annual increases. The code shows sporadic activity tied to broader commodity aggregation; solicitations rarely isolate dried organic black tartarian cherries as a standalone procurement.
