UNSPSC 50336600: Dried organic saskatoon berries

The type of organic fruit known as organic saskatoon berries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50336600 Dried organic saskatoon berries is a Class code nominally describing a specific dried fruit commodity, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows little alignment with the code's stated scope. The two school district opportunities that do appear (Hancock County Schools in Georgia and the City of Bridgeport's Board of Education in Connecticut) are broad fresh-produce and general-commodities solicitations that mention dozens of product lines — apples, berries of multiple varieties, vegetables, citrus, and specialty items — rather than saskatoon berries specifically. The State of Georgia and Texas Department of Criminal Justice opportunities are similarly broad food-supply buys that do not identify saskatoon berries or dried fruit as a focus. The code shows activity across school nutrition programs and institutional food service, but the recent opportunities do not indicate that saskatoon berries (dried or otherwise) are being actively procured by state and local buyers at present.

School districts and state institutional buyers dominate the issuing-body mix, with Hancock County Schools (Georgia), the City of Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut), the State of Georgia, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice appearing in recent postings. The geographic spread spans Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas, with responses due in June and May 2026. Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (due June 26, 2026) specifies over 200 line items with detailed case sizes and delivery to three school locations; the City of Bridgeport's commodities bid (due June 26, 2026) covers 115 line items for school nutrition service; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice's cafeteria food IFB (due May 4, 2026, extended from April 21) encompasses approximately 382 line items for institutional food service across six distribution points. Buy American provisions requiring a minimum of 51 percent domestic content in processed products appear across the school nutrition solicitations. The code shows little relevant recent activity and no clear market for dried saskatoon berries under this classification in current state and local procurement.
