UNSPSC 50332527: Dried organic maraschino cherries

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

UNSPSC 50332527 Dried organic maraschino cherries is a Commodity code that sees no significant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—specialty dried fruit items for food service—does not align with the recent opportunities tagged under this code, which focus instead on fresh produce, broad-line grocery distribution, eggs, fresh fruits and nuts, and full cafeteria food supply. The sole dried-fruit-specific solicitation in the dataset (Santa Clara County's January 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts) addresses raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans for a correctional facility, not maraschino cherries.

School districts and county boards of education represent the dominant issuing bodies across state and local food procurement broadly, with activities concentrated in Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, California, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issuing an IFB for fresh produce on June 26, 2026; Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia) soliciting a Master Grocery K-12 contract with bids due April 27, 2026; Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri) requesting grocery items with electronic submissions due April 29, 2026; and the Douglas County School System (Georgia) posting an RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative with sealed proposals due March 4, 2026. These opportunities involve hundreds of line items spanning produce, dairy, proteins, and prepared foods with annual contract values ranging to approximately $9 million, but dried maraschino cherries do not appear as a specified item or category in any of these solicitations.
