UNSPSC 50335106: Dried organic tainung papayas

The variety of organic papayas known as organic tainung papayas that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50335106 Dried organic tainung papayas, a Commodity code, covers specialty dried fruit products that state and local governments purchase primarily for school nutrition programs and correctional facilities. The recent solicitation activity shows minimal direct demand for dried organic tainung papayas specifically; instead, the code appears to span a broader family of dried fruit procurement where papayas are one line item among large, diversified fresh and dried produce portfolios. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with recent opportunities from Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia), supplemented by correctional facilities procuring on smaller scales. The code also sees activity from county sheriffs' departments and other institutional food services operators managing detention facilities and correctional centers.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and the Southeast, with secondary activity in California, Missouri, and Virginia. Representative recent opportunities include Hancock County Schools' fresh produce IFB (PE67080NONST2027000000013, due June 26, 2026) encompassing over 200 line items including specialty fruits such as papayas and kiwis alongside mainstream produce; the Douglas County School System's fresh produce and eggs RFP through the GEC Buying Cooperative (PE64810NONST2026000000047, due March 4, 2026), supporting 30 school districts across Georgia with approximately $5.5 million estimated annual spending; and Santa Clara County's dried fruits and nuts ITB (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026) for its correctional facility, which procured dried cranberries, raisins, and tropical fruit mix but did not list dried papayas as a line item. School nutrition contracts typically run July 1 through June 30 with firm pricing, weekly or scheduled deliveries, Buy American compliance requirements, and HACCP certification mandates. Sealed bid and RFP structures predominate, with response dates concentrated in March through June 2026.
