UNSPSC 50342102: Frozen dwarf bilberries

The variety of billberries known as dwarf bilberries that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50342102 Frozen dwarf bilberries is a Commodity code. State and local governments rarely procure this item specifically; the code does not appear in the recent opportunities dataset. Recent state and local food service solicitations across school districts, state institutions, and county agencies consistently tag comprehensive grocery, produce, and frozen-food procurements under broader food categories (NIGP 375, 380, 385, 390, 393) rather than narrow commodity lines such as frozen dwarf bilberries. The most recent opportunities show that procurement bodies buy frozen berries—including blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, and Marion berries—as part of mixed frozen-fruit line items or as components of comprehensive grocery contracts, not as standalone specialty items.

The issuing bodies across the recent opportunities span state institutions, school districts, counties, and special-purpose food-service agencies. State health and human services commissions in Texas (HHSC, DSHS) procure supplemental food and consumables for state hospitals and supported living centers; school nutrition programs in Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, and Texas dominate the recent activity, with school boards in Hancock County, Early County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County, Douglas County, Decatur, and Fulton County soliciting comprehensive food contracts. Correctional facilities (Oregon Department of Corrections, Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department) and child-care operators (Head Start of Greater Dallas) also appear as issuing bodies. Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia (ten recent opportunities), Texas (four), Florida (two), and single opportunities in Missouri, Connecticut, California, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's statewide supplemental food and consumables IFB (HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) covering food and consumable products including frozen items for state supported living centers with a prior-period spend of $1.5 million; the City of Bridgeport Board of Education's grocery-items IFB (BNB052266, closed June 30, 2026) covering over 1,100 line items including frozen products for the National School Lunch Program; and the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB (S2910000016590, due April 23, 2026) for frozen fruit berries specifically, seeking approximately 40,000 pounds of individually quick frozen berries. The narrow focus on frozen dwarf bilberries as a standalone commodity signals minimal procurement activity—vendors pursuing this code should monitor school nutrition, institutional food service, and correctional facility contracts for mixed frozen-fruit line items and respond through broader food-distribution channels rather than expect dedicated procurements for this specialty item.
