UNSPSC 50336102: Dried organic pineapple quince

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

UNSPSC 50336102 Dried organic pineapple quince, a Commodity code, does not reflect the actual procurement activity under this designation in recent state and local solicitations. School districts, state agencies, and corrections departments are soliciting food products under this code, but the items being purchased are fresh produce, frozen entrees, proteins, dairy, and dried fruits—not dried organic pineapple quince specifically. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia issued an IFB on June 10, 2026, for fresh produce across over 200 line items (apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, root vegetables, melons, citrus, leafy greens, and specialty items) for the 2026–27 school year with delivery to three school sites and a June 26, 2026, response deadline. The City of Bridgeport, Connecticut Department of Public Purchases posted an IFB on June 2, 2026, for 115 commodity line items including eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products to supply the Bridgeport Board of Education Nutrition Center, also due June 26, 2026. Both school nutrition programs require Buy American compliance with a minimum 51 percent domestic content in processed products, sealed bids, HACCP plans or equivalent compliance documentation, and firm pricing for the full contract term.

State and local food procurement under this code is concentrated in school nutrition programs and correctional facilities across Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice issued an IFB in May 2026 for approximately 382 food line items (proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, beverages, and produce) across five geographic areas with an extended response deadline of May 4, 2026, and a contract term through August 31, 2027, with optional renewals. The State of Georgia posted a food and supplies solicitation on May 15, 2026, with a June 22, 2026, deadline (full scope in attached document). An earlier Texas TDCJ bid, IW236532, solicited whole dried prunes in U.S. Grade B quality with a 1,400-box minimum order to the Corpus Christi location with a February 20, 2026, deadline. The issuing bodies are almost exclusively school districts and state corrections and food-service agencies; the code shows limited relevant activity to the dried organic pineapple quince commodity name and should be re-evaluated for alignment with actual procurement scope.
