UNSPSC 50337102: Dried organic brillantisima chokeberries

The variety of organic chokeberries known as organic brillantisima chokeberries that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50337102 Dried organic brillantisima chokeberries, a Commodity code, describes dried specialty berry products purchased by state and local school nutrition programs and institutional food-service operations. Recent solicitations show little activity directly matching dried chokeberries; instead, the code appears broadly applied to fresh and processed produce procurement in school lunch and correctional-facility meal programs. Work solicited under this code encompasses bulk fresh produce supply (apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, citrus, leafy greens, specialty fruits), processed proteins and entrees (beef, poultry, cheese, frozen burritos and patties), grains, condiments, canned goods, and miscellaneous food staples—with specifications tied to USDA grade requirements, Buy American provisions (minimum 51 percent domestic content for processed products), nutritional standards, shelf-life requirements, and destination freight prepaid delivery to multiple institutional locations. Issuing bodies include school districts (Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia, Bridgeport Board of Education in Connecticut), state agencies (Georgia Department of Education, Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts on behalf of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice), and municipal procurement offices (City of Bridgeport). State nutritional procurement emphasizes firm fixed pricing for contract duration, HACCP and food-safety certifications, $500,000 to $1 million commercial general liability insurance, compliance with USDA and FDA regulations, and the ability to maintain backup stock for emergency fulfillment.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Texas, with secondary presence in Connecticut. Representative solicitations include Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items with delivery to three school locations, response due June 26, 2026; the City of Bridgeport, Connecticut, Department of Public Purchases' IFB for 115 line items of food commodities to supply its nutrition center, also due June 26, 2026; and the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB on behalf of TDCJ for approximately 382 food-service line items across five geographic warehouse areas, with response due May 4, 2026 (extended via Addendum No. 2). The code shows material activity but no recent solicitation explicitly naming dried chokeberries; vendors pursuing this code should expect to compete on fresh and processed bulk staples, meet domestic-content and food-safety certification requirements, and deliver to multiple designated institutional sites on firm-fixed pricing structures.
