UNSPSC 50334005: Dried organic meiwa kumquats

The variety of organic kumquats known as organic meiwa kumquats that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50334005 Dried organic meiwa kumquats (Commodity) appears in state and local procurement activity primarily through school nutrition and institutional food-service solicitations, though recent opportunities show the code tagged to broader fresh and processed produce categories rather than kumquats specifically. State and local governments soliciting under this code buy fresh produce, frozen institutional food products, and commodity staples to supply school cafeterias, correctional facilities, and nutrition centers. The issuing bodies include school districts, city education departments, state departments, and state criminal justice agencies. School districts and boards of education are the dominant repeat buyers, as evidenced by Hancock County Schools in Georgia and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. Hancock County Board of Education issued IFB #SN002-2027 on June 10, 2026, due June 26, 2026, seeking fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year across more than 200 line items including apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus fruits, and specialty produce, with delivery to three school locations and the Buy American provision requiring 51 percent domestic content for processed items. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases posted IFB BNB053266 on June 2, 2026, due June 26, 2026, for 115 commodity line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products to supply the Board of Education Nutrition Center, with MBE/CBE certifications applicable under local ordinance.
