UNSPSC 50333412: Dried organic black giant grapes

The variety of organic table grapes known as organic black giant grapes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50333412 Dried organic black giant grapes, a Commodity code, describes specialty dried fruit products that state and local governments procure primarily through school nutrition and institutional food service programs. While the code's title specifies organic black giant grapes, recent solicitations under this code show a much broader purchasing pattern: school districts and correctional facilities are buying diverse dried fruits, fresh produce, and prepared food items as part of comprehensive nutrition and food-service contracts. State and local issuing bodies procuring under this code include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state corrections departments (Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state procurement offices acting on behalf of multiple agencies. The work encompasses sealed competitive bids for food commodities with firm pricing, HACCP compliance and food-safety certification requirements, Buy American provisions mandating minimum domestic content (typically 51 percent for processed products), and multi-year contract terms with delivery to designated institutional locations.

Geographic activity is concentrated in the South and Southwest: Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas show the most recent solicitation activity. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items (apples, berries, vegetables, specialty fruits) with delivery to three school locations and a June 26, 2026 due date; the City of Bridgeport's IFB for 115 line items of commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, and produce delivered to the Thomas E. Carroll Nutrition Center through June 30, 2027; the Texas Comptroller's IFB for cafeteria food products on behalf of TDCJ covering approximately 382 line items of proteins, dairy, grains, and produce with delivery to six TDCJ distribution points across Texas (extended due date May 4, 2026); and TDCJ's earlier bid for U.S. Grade B whole pitted dried prunes in 60–70 count size (1,400-box minimum, due date February 20, 2026). All solicitations emphasize compliance with USDA standards, insurance requirements, and in some cases MBE/CBE certifications under local ordinances.
