UNSPSC 50341653: Frozen valley gold apricots

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

UNSPSC 50341653 Frozen valley gold apricots (Commodity) does not map to recent state and local procurement activity. The code names a single specialty fruit product, but the source shows no solicitations specifically seeking frozen valley gold apricots; instead, recent opportunities tag frozen apricots and other dried or frozen fruits under broader grocery and food service categories, often without naming this variety explicitly.

State and local food service purchasing—spanning school districts, corrections facilities, state health and human services agencies, and county departments—does actively procure frozen and dried fruits as components of larger food supply contracts. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Hancock County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Douglas County School System (Georgia), Fulton County Schools (Georgia), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida), Head Start of Greater Dallas, and the County of Santa Clara Corrections Department have all posted solicitations in the past six months for grocery items, fresh and frozen produce, and food service supplies that would encompass frozen apricots as one line item among hundreds. However, none of these opportunities isolates frozen valley gold apricots as a distinct procurement line or uses this specific commodity code. Recent solicitations emphasize bulk frozen fruit berries (Oregon Department of Corrections, April 2026), fresh produce staples, and mixed frozen vegetables, but do not single out valley gold apricot varieties. The mismatch suggests the code either lacks current demand isolation or is applied inconsistently in state and local procurement systems. Vendors pursuing frozen-fruit supply should monitor broader food service and school nutrition RFPs, RFQs, and IFBs in Texas, Georgia, Florida, and other high-activity states rather than expect dedicated solicitations tagged to this Commodity code.
