UNSPSC 50342211: Frozen northcountry blueberries

The variety of blueberries known as northcountry blueberries that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50342211 Frozen northcountry blueberries (Commodity) is not appearing in recent state and local procurement activity. The single recent opportunity tagged with this code—the Oregon Department of Corrections' August 2026 frozen-apple solicitation (S2910000017684)—actually seeks frozen sliced or diced apples meeting USDA Commodity Specifications for Fruit, not blueberries. The ODOC procurement specifies apple product form, size requirements (diced apples minimum 3/8 inch), and delivery to the Central Distribution Center in Salem, with historical pricing at $0.797 per pound and prior award to Robbins Sales. This mismatch suggests either a coding error in the state procurement system or that the commodity code is not being used as intended for blueberry transactions in the records reviewed.

State and local food procurement—particularly institutional buying through corrections departments, health and human services agencies, school districts, and county departments—focuses more broadly on shelf-stable groceries, frozen prepared entrees and vegetables, fresh produce (apples, berries generally, root crops, melons, citrus, leafy greens), proteins, dairy, and beverages in bulk quantities. The recent solicitation universe shows activity from Texas HHSC, Georgia, Oregon DOC, New Jersey DHS, Connecticut school districts, and county boards of education, but none specifically isolate frozen northcountry blueberries as a line item. Unless the commodity code has seen significant activity outside the recent-opportunity window or is applied inconsistently across jurisdictions, this code does not currently represent an active procurement lane for business development focus.
