UNSPSC 50332509: Dried organic garnet cherries

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

UNSPSC 50332509 Dried organic garnet cherries is a Commodity code, but state and local procurement activity under this code shows minimal relevance to the code's nominal scope. Recent solicitations tagged with this code do not seek dried organic garnet cherries; instead, they encompass broad fresh produce, frozen food products, and grocery staples for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other public food services. The code's abstract definition diverges sharply from what is actually being purchased.

State and local buying under broader grocery and produce categories—not this specific dried fruit commodity—is dominated by school districts (Hancock County Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System), state departments (Georgia), correctional agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office), and regional cooperatives (GEC Buying Cooperative). Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Missouri, and California appear in recent activity. Representative solicitations include Hancock County Schools Nutrition Fresh Produce SY27 (IFB, due June 26, 2026), covering 200+ produce line items for July 2026–June 2027 delivery to three school sites; Bridgeport Board of Education Commodities (IFB, due June 26, 2026), with 115 line items spanning eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and produce for delivery to a single nutrition center through June 30, 2027; Douglas County School System Fresh Produce and Eggs via GEC Buying Cooperative (RFP, due March 4, 2026), serving 30 districts with estimated annual spend of $5.5 million combined for two geographic areas; and Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office Dried Fruits and Nuts (ITB, due February 5, 2026), a five-year fixed-price contract for raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit blend, walnuts, and pecans for Elmwood Correctional Facility. Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51% domestic content in processed products, firm fixed pricing for contract periods, weekly or regular scheduled delivery, HACCP compliance, and E-Verify authorization appear consistently across opportunities.
