UNSPSC 50333100: Dried organic figs

The type of organic fruit known as organic figs that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50333100 Dried organic figs is a Class code covering procurement of dried fruit products for state and local institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and corrections facilities. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show school districts and state criminal-justice agencies buying individual dried fruit items—including dried prunes, and implicitly dried figs as part of broader dried-fruit line items—as components of larger food-service contracts. School districts procure dried fruits as part of fresh and processed produce buys for student meal programs; corrections agencies buy dried fruits as shelf-stable staple items for inmate nutrition. Work under the code is embedded within multi-line-item food commodity IFBs rather than standalone single-product procurements, reflecting the institutional-scale economies typical of school lunch and corrections nutrition operations.

Geographic activity spans at least Texas, Georgia, and Connecticut, with the most recent visible opportunities originating from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, the State of Georgia, school districts in Georgia and Connecticut, and state purchasing offices acting as coordinating bodies. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) IFB #SN002-2027 for fresh produce including multiple dried and fresh fruit items, posted June 10, 2026 with a June 26, 2026 response date; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut IFB for nutrition center commodities, posted June 2, 2026 with a June 26, 2026 electronic submission deadline; the State of Georgia food supplies procurement posted May 15, 2026 with a June 22, 2026 due date; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice IFB No. 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products, with the response deadline extended to May 4, 2026. All school-based solicitations enforce the Buy American provision requiring a minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products. MBE and CBE certifications apply where specified by local ordinance, as in Bridgeport. Pre-bid conferences, Q&A cycles, and addenda are standard across these opportunities; delivery to multiple institutional sites with firm pricing for the contract period is typical.
