UNSPSC 50335605: Dried organic natal queen pineapple

The variety of organic pineapples known as organic natal queen pineapple that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50335605 Dried organic natal queen pineapple is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code overwhelmingly reflect school nutrition programs, county and municipal food service for detention facilities, and state criminal justice food supply—none of which call for dried organic natal queen pineapple by name or specification. School districts including 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) have posted IFBs and RFPs for fresh produce, grocery staples, eggs, and prepared entrees for the 2026–27 school year, with response dates clustered in late April through June 2026. The City of Bridgeport (Connecticut), State of Georgia, and Texas Department of Criminal Justice have similarly solicited broad food commodity categories covering proteins, dairy, grains, canned goods, and fresh produce—none specifying dried pineapple varieties. The County of Santa Clara (California) issued an ITB for dried fruits and nuts including raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans, but not pineapple. The code shows no documented recent state or local procurement specifically calling for dried organic natal queen pineapple as a line item or deliverable.

Activity under this code is geographically scattered across Georgia (Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County), Virginia (Fairfax County), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Connecticut (Bridgeport), California (Santa Clara), and Texas (TDCJ), with no concentration in any single jurisdiction or region. The issuing bodies are predominantly K–12 school districts managing child nutrition programs, supplemented by county corrections departments and state criminal justice agencies procuring food for incarcerated populations. The mismatch between the code's nominal commodity (dried organic natal queen pineapple) and the actual scope of recent opportunities (fresh produce, broad grocery categories, dried fruits in only one case without pineapple specification) suggests either miscoding in state procurement systems or marginal relevance of this UNSPSC category to current state and local contracting demand. A firm pursuing work under this code should verify with issuing bodies directly whether dried pineapple products are embedded in broader produce or grocery RFPs, as the recent record provides no explicit solicitation for the named commodity.
