UNSPSC 50335610: Dried organic variegated pineapple

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

UNSPSC 50335610 Dried organic variegated pineapple is a Commodity code covering fresh and processed fruit products purchased by state and local school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and other public food service operations. The recent opportunities tagged to this code show minimal direct relevance — the source documents reference fresh produce, general grocery staples, and dried fruits (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mixes, walnuts, pecans) but contain no solicitations explicitly naming dried pineapple or organic variegated pineapple as a line item. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual recent opportunities suggests that state and local procurement offices either tag produce and dried fruit purchases inconsistently across UNSPSC codes or have little current demand for this specific product.

The issuing bodies pursuing dried and fresh fruit procurement are school districts (Hancock County Schools, Bridgeport Board of Education, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Douglas County School System in Georgia), state departments (Georgia Department of Education), correctional facilities (Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Santa Clara County Office of the Sheriff), and municipalities (City of Bridgeport). Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, Virginia, and Texas. Representative opportunities include Hancock County Schools' Fresh Produce IFB (due June 26, 2026) spanning 200+ line items of apples, berries, and vegetables but no dried pineapple; Santa Clara County's Dried Fruits and Nuts ITB (due February 5, 2026) soliciting raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, and pecans on an all-or-none basis for a five-year term; and Douglas County School System's Food Supply and Distribution RFP (due February 18, 2026) for a main-line distributor serving 25,500 students with an estimated annual expenditure of $9 million. The absence of dried organic pineapple from these specifications indicates minimal current state and local demand under this code; vendors offering dried pineapple would benefit from direct outreach to school nutrition and correctional food service buyers rather than reliance on solicitations tagged to this commodity code.
