UNSPSC 50333420: Dried organic catawba grapes

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

UNSPSC 50333420 Dried organic catawba grapes, a Commodity code, nominally covers dried grape products, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows no direct solicitations for dried catawba grapes or similar dried organic fruit. Instead, the code appears in school nutrition, correctional facility food service, and state commodity purchasing contexts where fresh produce and prepared food items dominate the actual scope of work. School districts and state agencies post IFBs for fresh fruits, vegetables, proteins, dairy, and prepared entrees to supply cafeteria and nutrition centers; these solicitations typically reference broad commodity codes that encompass multiple product categories rather than single ingredients. The issuing bodies are school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state procurement offices acting for state departments (Georgia State Procurement, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and city purchasing departments (City of Bridgeport). Buy American provisions requiring minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products and compliance with USDA grade standards are standard across the opportunities.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) issued IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning over 200 line items due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school locations. The City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) solicited commodities including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products via electronic submission due June 26, 2026. The State of Georgia posted a food, supplies, and other kitchen products IFB due June 22, 2026. The Texas Comptroller posted IFB 304T-26-300CF on behalf of TDCJ for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products due May 4, 2026 (extended from April 21). A separate TDCJ bid (IW236532) for whole pitted dried prunes due February 20, 2026, represents the only solicitation approximating the dried-fruit category, but this dried commodity was posted in April 2026 after its due date had already passed. The code shows limited recent activity directly aligned with dried organic catawba grapes; vendors targeting this code should recognize that state and local procurement under it operates primarily as part of broader food service contracts rather than specialty dried-fruit sourcing.
