UNSPSC 50342905: Frozen gundila dates

The variety of dates known as gundila dates that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50342905 Frozen gundila dates (Commodity) represents a narrow product classification that state and local procurement offices use to tag frozen specialty fruit purchases, though the recent contract opportunities block shows minimal direct purchasing activity against this specific code. The opportunities posted in the source instead reflect broader institutional food procurement across frozen fruits and vegetables, shelf-stable groceries, fresh produce, and prepared foods that state and local issuing bodies source to support food service programs at schools, state hospitals, state supported living centers, correctional facilities, county parks, senior services, and child care programs. While a handful of these solicitations touch frozen fruit (such as the Oregon Department of Corrections' frozen sliced or diced apples bid), the code itself appears underutilized or conflated with higher-tier frozen-food and grocery categories in recent state and local buying activity.

Issuing bodies active in the broader frozen and fresh food category include state health and human services commissions (particularly Texas), state departments of corrections, county boards of education and county commissioners across the Southeast and Southwest, the Connecticut Bridgeport Board of Education, New Jersey's Department of Human Services, and Head Start and special-purpose food-service contractors. Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) emerges as a prolific repeat buyer, issuing multiple fiscal-year food service bids for state hospital and supported living center networks across the state. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in Texas, Georgia, Florida, Oregon, Connecticut, and New Jersey. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas HHSC's bid for frozen food products to state hospitals and supported living centers (IFB HHS0017338, posted July 17, 2026, approximately $9 million estimated annual volume); the Oregon Department of Corrections' 40,000-pound frozen sliced or diced apples solicitation (S2910000017684, due August 19, 2026, with 5–10% state-of-origin preference); Hancock County Board of Education's fresh-produce bid encompassing apples and other fruits (IFB SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026); and the New Jersey Department of Human Services' frozen mixed vegetables bid for nutrition assistance programs (T1103 26DPP01307, due June 17, 2026). The code itself shows limited direct matching to posted opportunities, suggesting that buyers and systems tag frozen specialty fruit procurement under higher-level frozen-food or produce families rather than this specific commodity line.
