UNSPSC 50341649: Frozen tilton apricots

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

UNSPSC 50341649 Frozen tilton apricots is a Commodity code covering a narrow, specialized frozen-fruit product line. State and local procurement activity under this code is sparse; recent solicitations show that state and local governments purchase frozen fruits and related frozen food products primarily through broad grocery and food-service procurement vehicles rather than single-commodity buys. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, county school systems, city school districts, and special-purpose food-service entities (state hospitals, state supported living centers, Head Start programs, correctional facilities) are the primary issuing bodies. These jurisdictions consolidate frozen-fruit purchases—including frozen apricots, mixed berries, and other varieties—into larger food-service line-item bids alongside proteins, dairy, produce, grains, and prepared foods, rather than issuing standalone solicitations for frozen tilton apricots specifically.

Recent opportunities show frozen fruits embedded in multi-hundred-line-item grocery bids. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017660 on July 13, 2026 (bids due July 27, 2026) for FY27 groceries for Big Spring State Hospital, spanning 110+ line items including frozen products; the same agency issued IFB HHS0017449 on June 11, 2026 (bids due July 11, 2026) for food and consumable products for the El Paso State Supported Living Center, with an estimated prior-year spend of $1.5 million. School districts across Georgia (Hancock County, Bulloch County, Early County, Decatur) and Texas (Head Start of Greater Dallas) issued food-service bids in the April–July 2026 window with frozen-product line items integrated into broader grocery procurements. The Oregon Department of Corrections issued ITB S2910000016590 on April 9, 2026 (bids due April 23, 2026) seeking frozen berries—approximately 40,000 pounds at $0.89 per pound based on prior-year pricing. Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and selected West Coast jurisdictions; the code shows no meaningful standalone market for frozen tilton apricots alone and does not represent a distinct pursuit opportunity.
