UNSPSC 50341623: Frozen honeycot apricots

The variety of apricots known as honeycot apricots that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50341623 Frozen honeycot apricots is a Commodity code that maps poorly to the recent state and local procurement activity in the source. The code nominally designates a single frozen-fruit product line, but the opportunities cited under it involve broad grocery and food-service procurement spanning dozens to hundreds of line items—proteins, dairy, produce, prepared foods, pantry staples, beverages, and packaging. School districts, state health and human services agencies, county correctional and educational bodies, and nonprofit Head Start organizations are issuing these solicitations as IFB, RFP, and ITB notices for annual or multi-year food-service contracts. The work being solicited is institutional food procurement for state hospitals, school nutrition programs, correctional facilities, and child care, driven by federal nutrition standards (USDA, CACFP, NSLP), Buy American provisions, HACCP compliance, and cost-control objectives tied to market indices and CPI adjustments.

Activity concentrates in Texas (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), Georgia (multiple school districts and county boards including Hancock County, Early County, Decatur, Bulloch County, Henry County, Douglas County, Savannah-Chatham, and Fulton County), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI School District), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), and Oregon (Department of Corrections), with smaller procurement from California (Santa Clara County) and New Jersey (Department of Human Services). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for groceries at Big Spring State Hospital due July 27, 2026, spanning 110 line items with firm fixed pricing and a $32,226 historical baseline; the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items for the Board of Education due June 30, 2026, subject to Buy American and Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act requirements; Head Start of Greater Dallas' IFB 26-GP for frozen foods, produce, and meat across three tiers of suppliers due June 24, 2026, valued at $969,460.94; and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items) due June 26, 2026, with delivery to three school sites. The code shows substantial recent procurement volume but little evidence that frozen honeycot apricots as a discrete item drives or shapes the solicitations—they appear, if at all, as one line among hundreds in blanket grocery bids.
