UNSPSC 50334948: Dried organic spring red nectarines

The variety of organic nectarines known as organic spring red nectarines that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50334948 Dried organic spring red nectarines is a Commodity code covering dried fruit products for institutional food service, particularly school nutrition programs and correctional facility dining. State and local governments procure dried nectarines and related dried fruit commodities as menu items for school cafeterias, criminal justice facilities, and other public institutional food services. The solicitations show that dried fruit appears as one line item within much broader fresh and processed produce buys that school districts and state agencies use to operate centralized nutrition centers and multiple facility dining operations. Issuing bodies include independent school districts (such as Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia), city education departments (City of Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center in Connecticut), state departments (State of Georgia food procurement), and state-level criminal justice agencies (Texas Department of Criminal Justice). These buyers procure under competitive IFB and sealed-bid processes, typically with firm fixed pricing for annual contract periods (July to June for school years, or calendar-year or extended terms for corrections facilities) and Buy American provisions requiring minimum domestic content thresholds.

Recent activity concentrates in the Southeast and Southwest. Hancock County Schools (Georgia) posted an IFB on June 10, 2026, with a response date of June 26, 2026, covering over 200 fresh produce line items for the 2026–27 school year with delivery to three school locations; the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases (Connecticut) posted an IFB on June 2, 2026, due June 26, 2026, for 115 commodity items including fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center; the State of Georgia posted a food supplies and kitchen products solicitation on May 15, 2026, due June 22, 2026, with scope details in an attachment; and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts, on behalf of TDCJ, posted Invitation for Bid No. 304T-26-300CF on May 4, 2026, due May 4, 2026 (extended via addendum to May 4, 2026), covering approximately 382 cafeteria food line items for delivery to multiple TDCJ warehouse locations across five Texas geographic areas. A separate TDCJ bid for dried prunes (Bid No. IW236532) posted April 23, 2026, with a due date of February 20, 2026, specifying 1,400 boxes of U.S. Grade B whole pitted dried prunes in 60–70 count size for a Corpus Christi location. The code shows limited recent activity specifically tagged to dried nectarines; opportunities are typically aggregated within larger commodity RFBs where dried fruit appears as a minor component alongside fresh produce and processed foods.
