UNSPSC 50334103: Dried organic cameron highlands lemons

The variety of organic lemons known as organic cameron highlands lemons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50334103 Dried organic cameron highlands lemons is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity under this code bears little direct relationship to its nominal scope. The source records show no solicitations specifically requesting dried cameron highlands lemons or dried lemons of any kind. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code encompass broad fresh and dried produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other institutional food service operations. The actual buying reflects generic food commodity procurement at the school district, state department, and county correctional levels — K-12 nutrition contracts that span 200+ line items of fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus), dried fruits and nuts in bulk, proteins, cheese, eggs, grains, condiments, and beverages. State and local issuing bodies in this dataset include school districts (Hancock County Schools in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri, Liberty County Schools in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools in Georgia, Douglas County Schools in Georgia), state departments (Georgia, Texas), counties (Santa Clara in California), and cities (Bridgeport, Connecticut). The mix skews heavily toward K-12 school nutrition procurement, with secondary activity in corrections food service and municipal nutrition center supply.

The geographic spread centers on Georgia, where multiple school districts and state agencies have posted opportunities, with additional activity in Texas (Department of Criminal Justice), Missouri, Virginia, Connecticut, and California. Recent representative solicitations include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026, covering 200+ line items for delivery to three schools and an Early Head Start center), Bridgeport's commodities bid through its Board of Education Nutrition Center (due June 26, 2026, spanning 115 line items with MBE/CBE certification applicable), the County of Santa Clara's ITB for dried fruits and nuts to a correctional facility (due February 5, 2026, requesting raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans on an all-or-none basis), and Douglas County Schools' RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (due March 4, 2026, estimated $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two). School nutrition contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 on annual fixed-price terms with Buy American provisions requiring at least 51 percent domestic content for processed items, and awards are frequently made to single or multiple vendors on a line-item basis. The code shows no recent activity distinctly aligned with cameron highlands lemons or specialty dried-lemon procurement; it functions here as a catch-all for institutional produce and food commodity buys rather than as a targeted category for a specific dried-lemon product.
