UNSPSC 50334634: Dried organic ogen melons

The variety of organic melons known as organic ogen melons that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50334634 Dried organic ogen melons, a Commodity code, represents a narrow product category within the broader fresh and dried produce procurement activity that state and local governments pursue for school nutrition, corrections, and institutional food service. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show minimal direct procurement activity for dried organic melons specifically; instead, the code appears alongside solicitations for comprehensive fresh produce, comprehensive grocery supplies, and mixed dried-fruit bundles that encompass melons as one line item among dozens or hundreds of others. State and local issuing bodies soliciting under or near this code span school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia, Douglas County School System in Georgia), county correctional facilities (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department of Correction in California, Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and state procurement offices (Georgia, Texas). School districts dominate the recent activity, driven by federal Buy American requirements for school lunch programs and the need to procure produce across multiple delivery points on annual fixed-price contracts.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in California, Missouri, Connecticut, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include the Hancock County Board of Education's June 2026 fresh produce IFB spanning over 200 line items including melons with delivery to three school locations, the Savannah-Chatham County Public School System's April 2026 fresh produce bid covering 72 produce items across 60 school sites, and the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department's January 2026 ITB for dried fruits and nuts (including a dried tropical fruit mix blend) with a five-year term and five-percent local preference. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Georgia state procurement office also issued related solicitations for broad food commodity bundles that subsume melons as line items. Most school district solicitations close in March through June for July start dates, with firm fixed pricing for twelve-month school-year cycles. Dried organic melons specifically do not appear as a standalone line item in any of the recent solicitations reviewed; the code's activity is embedded in larger produce and commodity buys where melons (fresh and processed) compete with dozens of alternative produce categories.
