UNSPSC 50332601: Dried organic buddha's hand citrons

The variety of organic citrons known as organic buddha's hand citrons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50332601 Dried organic buddha's hand citrons is a Commodity code that should name specific dried citrus or specialty fruit products state and local governments procure for institutional food service. The recent opportunities block shows no solicitations explicitly calling for dried buddha's hand citrons or closely related specialty dried citrus items. The posted opportunities span fresh produce (apples, berries, citrus, vegetables), general grocery items, dried fruits including raisins and cranberries, eggs, and broad food service distribution — none of which isolate dried organic buddha's hand citrons as a line item or procurement focus. A Santa Clara County ITB for dried fruits and nuts (January 2026) included dried raisins, cranberries, and tropical fruit mix for a county detention facility, but no buddha's hand citrons. School districts from Georgia to Missouri to Virginia and Connecticut, together with state departments and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, are actively soliciting fresh produce and grocery staples under overlapping commodity codes, yet the source does not surface any recent activity specifically targeting this specialty dried citron variety.

The code shows little relevant recent activity. State and local food service procurement under related codes focuses on commodity volumes of conventional fresh and dried fruits, proteins, and staple groceries to support school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and institutional kitchens — not specialty organic dried citrus. If the code is accurate, dried organic buddha's hand citrons occupy a niche outside the mainstream school lunch, county detention, and municipal cafeteria supply chains that dominate current procurement in this product family. Vendors pursuing this code should assess whether state and local buyers actually stock or demand this item before investing in pursuit strategy.
