UNSPSC 50334205: Dried organic tahitian limes

The variety of organic limes known as organic tahitian limes that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50334205 Dried organic Tahitian limes, a Commodity code, represents a narrow slice of school nutrition procurement where state and local governments buy fresh and processed produce for institutional feeding programs. The recent solicitations show that state and local issuing bodies cast the code net broadly across produce categories—the Hancock County, Georgia school district's June 2026 IFB for fresh produce includes over 200 line items spanning apples, berries, citrus, melons, leafy greens, and root vegetables alongside specialty items like kiwis and mangos; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut's June 2026 commodity bid covers 115 line items including fruit and vegetable products; and the State of Georgia's May 2026 food solicitation and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's May 2026 cafeteria food IFB similarly encompass broad produce and food-supply categories. The code's actual scope diverges significantly from the nominal "dried organic Tahitian limes"—none of the recent opportunities reference dried limes or citrus-specific line items by name, and the opportunities show school districts, city education departments, and state departments of corrections as the primary issuing bodies. Buy American provisions requiring 51 percent domestic content in processed products, HACCP plans, and firm fixed pricing for multi-year terms structure these opportunities. Award authority typically flows to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with discretion to award to single or multiple vendors.

Geographic activity centers on the Southeast and Texas. Hancock County Schools (Georgia), the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut), the State of Georgia, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice posted the only recent opportunities tagged to this code between April and June 2026. The Hancock County and Georgia State opportunities closed in late June 2026; the Bridgeport and TDCJ opportunities also closed or had passed their response dates by mid-to-late June 2026. One TDCJ prune-specific IFB (IW236532) posted in April 2026 with a February 20, 2026 deadline—an apparent data anomaly indicating the record may be misdated or the opportunity was already closed when indexed. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity; the opportunities actually solicited across the recent block emphasize broad-category produce and food commodities rather than dried citrus products, suggesting the code's assignment to these solicitations may reflect internal tagging practices that do not align tightly with the specific commodity named.
