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 (Commodity) appears in school nutrition and correctional-facility food service solicitations where state and local governments procure fresh and processed produce for institutional meal programs. The code's nominal focus on dried organic pineapple does not match the scope of recent solicitations actually posted under it—the opportunities reflect broad-based fresh produce and commodity food procurement for nutrition centers, rather than dried fruit specifically. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued IFB #SN002-2027 for over 200 line items of fresh produce spanning apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, peppers, tomatoes, and specialty items (kiwis, mangos, papayas, starfruit) for delivery to three school sites across the 2026–27 school year, with bids due June 26, 2026. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases solicited 115 line items of eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products for the Board of Education Nutrition Center through an IFB with electronic submissions due June 26, 2026. Both school nutrition solicitations require Buy American provisions mandating at least 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products and impose firm pricing for the full contract term plus transportation to designated delivery sites.

Recent activity spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB (304T-26-300CF) for approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products—proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, beverages, baking supplies, condiments, and canned and fresh vegetables—for delivery to six TDCJ warehouse locations across five Texas geographic areas, with the response deadline extended via addendum to May 4, 2026. The same TDCJ agency also posted a separate bid (IW236532) for whole, pitted, dried prunes meeting U.S. Grade B specifications in 60–70 count size. The Georgia Department of Education issued a state-level solicitation (PE55645NONST2026000000009) for food, supplies, and other kitchen products with a June 22, 2026 due date. The code shows active purchasing by school districts and state correctional agencies, with issuing bodies spanning county boards of education, city departments of public purchases, and state-level procuring agencies. No single issuing body dominates the recent opportunity set; the activity reflects distributed purchasing across multiple institutional food-service customers within school nutrition and corrections.
