UNSPSC 50342409: Frozen white cherimoya

The variety of cherimoya known as white cherimoya that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50342409 Frozen white cherimoya is a Commodity code that describes specialty frozen fruit procured for institutional food service operations. Recent state and local opportunities show little direct purchasing of the nominal product; instead, the code appears tagged on broader grocery and food-service procurement solicitations where frozen fruit is bundled with diverse product categories. The issuing bodies span Texas Health and Human Services Commission (state hospital and supported living center operations), school districts across Georgia, Florida, Missouri, and Connecticut, county corrections facilities, and Head Start child care programs. These jurisdictions typically procure frozen fruit as one line item among dozens or hundreds in comprehensive food-service contracts, rather than as standalone specialty commodity purchases. The procurement pattern reflects institutional food programs — state hospital cafeterias, school nutrition services, child care meal programs, and correctional facility food operations — where frozen fruit serves standardized meal planning rather than fresh-specialty distribution.

Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with scattered recent opportunities in Connecticut, Missouri, California, and Oregon. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 (Big Spring State Hospital groceries, due July 27, 2026, covering approximately 110 food line items with historical spend of $32,226.36 annually), the Hancock County Board of Education fresh produce IFB for school year 2027 (due June 26, 2026, covering 200+ line items across multiple produce categories), and the Rockwood R-VI School District child nutrition services IFB (due April 29, 2026, spanning over 900 line items). The Oregon Department of Corrections ITB for frozen fruit berries (due April 23, 2026) represents one of the few solicitations narrowly focused on frozen fruit—40,000 pounds of IQF berries at approximately $0.89 per pound based on prior award pricing. Frozen white cherimoya does not appear as a named item in any of the recent opportunities reviewed; the code shows minimal direct procurement activity and likely serves as a catch-all classification within broader institutional food contracts rather than representing active standalone demand.
