UNSPSC 50335832 Dried organic gar red plums is a Commodity code covering dried fruit products procured by state and local school nutrition programs, corrections departments, and food service operations. Recent solicitations show that state and local buyers under this code are purchasing dried fruits—particularly dried prunes and related dried fruit commodities—as components of cafeteria meal programs and institutional food service. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) has solicited whole, pitted, dried prunes meeting U.S. Grade B quality standards in specific case configurations for warehouse distribution to multiple facilities. School districts and board of education nutrition centers, including Hancock County Schools in Georgia and the Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut, solicit fresh and processed produce line items as part of broader nutrition commodity RFPs and IFBs covering 100+ line items spanning vegetables, fruits, and related food products.
