UNSPSC 50343301: Frozen burgundy grapefruit

The variety of grapefruit known as burgundy grapefruit that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50343301 Frozen burgundy grapefruit, a Commodity code, sees sparse recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a single frozen fruit product, yet the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations specifically matching frozen burgundy grapefruit. Instead, state and local bodies are issuing broad-based food and grocery RFPs and IFBs that span produce, frozen items, proteins, dairy, and supplies—often with 100+ line items per solicitation—without isolating frozen grapefruit as a distinct, tracked commodity. The available opportunities reveal a fundamental mismatch: procurement bodies treat frozen fruit as one undifferentiated line within larger food service contracts rather than as a standalone purchase category.

State and local grocery and food service procurement is dominated by school districts, state health and human services agencies, and county school boards across Georgia, Texas, Missouri, Connecticut, Florida, and California. Representatives include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (multiple statewide institutional food contracts), Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia, fresh produce), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri, 900+ line-item grocery solicitation), and Hillsborough County Public Schools (Florida, USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program). These bodies typically issue IFBs and RFPs with response dates 30–90 days out, firm fixed pricing, Buy American compliance, HACCP and food safety certifications, and liability insurance minimums of $500,000 to $2 million. The code's abstraction—frozen burgundy grapefruit—does not align with how state and local procurement offices actually source food. Absent recent solicitations naming frozen burgundy grapefruit by commodity or variety, this code shows little actionable recent activity for business development purposes.
