UNSPSC 50335843: Dried organic joanna red plums

The variety of organic plums known as organic joanna red plums that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50335843 Dried organic joanna red plums is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual state and local procurement activity in the source. Recent opportunities tagged with this code overwhelmingly solicit fresh and frozen produce, proteins, dairy, grains, and prepared foods for school nutrition programs and corrections food services—not dried organic plums specifically. The Hancock County Schools solicitation (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026) requests over 200 line items of fresh produce including apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, and specialty fruits, with no mention of dried plums. Similarly, the Bridgeport Board of Education (IFB BNB053266, due June 26, 2026) seeks 115 line items spanning eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice (IFB 304T-26-300CF, due May 4, 2026) procures approximately 382 line items of cafeteria food products including proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, and produce. One tangential opportunity—the Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office (ITB-PRC-FY26-0617, due February 5, 2026)—solicited dried fruits and nuts (raisins, cranberries, tropical fruit mix, walnuts, pecans) for a corrections facility, but joanna red plums did not appear in that scope. School districts dominate the issuing bodies in the recent block, including Hancock County Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI School District, Liberty County Board of Education, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, alongside municipal and state procurement offices. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Texas, Connecticut, Virginia, Missouri, and California.

The code shows minimal relevant recent activity for dried organic joanna red plums as a distinct commodity. Buyers in this space pursue comprehensive produce and food-service supply contracts that include dried fruits as one line item among hundreds, not standalone dried plum procurements. Vendors targeting this code should expect to compete on master grocery or produce-distribution contracts serving K-12 nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and state food services, where dried plums would be a minor SKU within a larger fixed-price agreement. Buy American and domestic-sourcing provisions appear consistently across these solicitations, and firms should anticipate firm fixed pricing, monthly or quarterly deliveries to multiple sites, HACCP and food safety certifications, and commercial general liability insurance minimums of $1 million.
