UNSPSC 50335849: Dried organic lone star red plums

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

UNSPSC 50335849 Dried organic lone star red plums (Commodity) does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single dried-fruit variety, yet the opportunities posted under this classification span broad food-service categories including fresh produce, eggs, proteins, grains, dairy, and beverages across school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and state food services. The mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the source data or a code tier misalignment; the opportunities are not buying lone star red plums specifically but rather establishing master grocery and food-service contracts for K–12 nutrition programs and institutional food operations.

Recent solicitations issued by school districts in Georgia (Hancock County Schools, Liberty County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), Virginia (Fairfax County Public Schools), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), and California (County of Santa Clara), along with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and State of Georgia procurement offices, reflect demand for commodity aggregation rather than single-SKU procurement. Representative notices include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026) spanning over 200 line items; Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 term contract (due April 27, 2026) requiring 76 minimum items for responsive bids; and the County of Santa Clara's ITB for dried fruits and nuts to the Elmwood Correctional Facility (due February 5, 2026) with a five-year term and local preference option. Geographic concentration appears strongest in Georgia and multi-state school systems using cooperative purchasing vehicles such as the GEC Buying Cooperative. Given the code's specificity to a single product type and the breadth of actual procurement activity under the posted classification, this code presents limited direct opportunity for vendors focused on dried organic plums; business development professionals should verify code assignment before pursuing opportunities labeled under this taxonomy entry.
