UNSPSC 50341521: Frozen early mcintosh apples

The variety of apples known as early mcintosh apples that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50341521 Frozen early McIntosh apples (Commodity) does not appear in recent state and local procurement records. The code shows no relevant solicitations—the source materials contain school nutrition, institutional food service, and produce procurement records that tag items such as fresh apples, frozen fruit berries, dried fruits, fresh produce assortments, and comprehensive grocery bundles, but none specifically match frozen early McIntosh apple stock. When state and local agencies procure apple varieties, they solicit them as part of broader fresh produce contracts or frozen fruit aggregates, not as a discrete commodity line, and current records do not segregate frozen McIntosh varieties from other frozen apple products or fresh apple purchases.

School districts in Georgia (Hancock County, Early County, Savannah-Chatham, Bulloch County, Henry County, and Fulton County) and other states issue annual food service IFBs that span 200+ produce line items or 900+ grocery items, but these cite fresh or generalized frozen fruit categories rather than single varietal frozen apples. State institutional buyers in Texas (HHSC) and Oregon (DOC) procure frozen berries and mixed frozen fruits in bulk quantities, yet no posting names frozen early McIntosh apples as a distinct line item or procurement focus. The absence of activity under this specific code—despite substantial concurrent purchasing of apples and frozen fruits across school nutrition programs and institutional food service—signals either minimal direct procurement at the commodity level or systematic tagging misalignment between buyer intent and UNSPSC classification at the state and local tier.
