UNSPSC 50535333 Dried non-GMO John Henry peaches, a Commodity code, sees minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its specific product scope. The recent opportunities identified in the dataset are tagged to this code but predominantly solicit broad grocery, fresh produce, and meal service contracts rather than dried peach products specifically. State and local buyers posting under related food-procurement codes are pursuing school nutrition programs (elementary through high school), senior meal services, state institutional food supply, and general grocery distribution—categories that encompass fresh produce, frozen items, dairy, proteins, and prepared foods, but do not center on dried peaches as a line item. The issuing bodies span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia; Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia; Savannah-Chatham County Public School System in Georgia; Bulloch County Board of Education in Georgia; Pascagoula-Gautier School District in Mississippi; Meriden Public Schools in Connecticut; Douglas County School System in Georgia), county and city procurement offices (Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases in Connecticut; Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida; City of Dallas), state agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission; State of Georgia), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (GEC Buying Cooperative serving multiple districts).

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas, and Virginia. Representative recent solicitations include the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases seeking grocery items for the Bridgeport Board of Education via IFB BNB052266 (due June 30, 2026), covering over 1,100 line items across breakfast cereals, frozen products, fruits, and vegetables with Buy American requirements; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission procuring food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center under IFB HHS0017449 (due July 13, 2026) with a historical reference value of $1.5 million; Hancock County Board of Education requesting fresh produce spanning multiple apple varieties, berries, and vegetables under IFB #SN002-2027 (due June 26, 2026); and the Douglas County School System issuing RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 districts across Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for one area. Dried peaches do not appear as a specified or emphasized line item in any of these solicitations; the code's nominal scope diverges from the actual procurement activity documented.
