UNSPSC 50341645: Frozen royal apricots

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

UNSPSC 50341645 Frozen royal apricots, a Commodity code, describes a narrow product line within state and local food service procurement, yet the recent opportunities tagged to this code span a much broader scope of food and grocery items for institutional cafeterias, school nutrition programs, and correctional and state facility food service. State and local governments under this code are actually procuring comprehensive frozen and fresh produce, specialty food items, proteins, dairy, pantry staples, and food service supplies—not apricots specifically. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Hancock County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham County, Fulton County, Douglas County, Rockwood R-VI, City Schools of Decatur, Bridgeport Board of Education, Early County, Henry County), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state hospitals and supported living centers), Head Start organizations, county correctional facilities (Santa Clara County Sheriff Department of Correction), and regional education cooperatives. State agencies including the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and Oregon Department of Corrections appear frequently in recent solicitations.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and other southeastern and mid-Atlantic states, with notable procurement volume from state hospital and state supported living center networks in Texas (HHSC Big Spring State Hospital, El Paso State Supported Living Center), school districts across Georgia (Hancock, Bulloch, Savannah-Chatham, Fulton, Douglas, Decatur), and school systems in Missouri, Connecticut, and Florida. Representative recent opportunities include Texas Health and Human Services Commission IFB HHS0017660 (FY27 Groceries for Big Spring State Hospital, bids due July 27, 2026, with approximately $32,226 prior-year spend), City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases IFB BID052266 (Grocery Items for Board of Education Food & Nutrition Services, bids due June 30, 2026, spanning over 1,100 line items with Buy American and Healthy Hunger-Free Kids Act compliance), and Head Start of Greater Dallas IFB 26-GP (approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods and produce for child care programs, bids due June 24, 2026, estimated value $969,460.94). Hancock County Board of Education IFB SN002-2027 (Fresh Produce for 2026-27, bids due June 26, 2026) and Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through GEC Buying Cooperative (Fresh Produce and Eggs for 30 districts, bids due March 4, 2026, estimated $4.4 million Area One spend) illustrate the geographic spread and scale typical under this code.
