UNSPSC 50343430: Frozen emerald seedless grapes

The variety of table grapes known as emerald seedless grapes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50343430 Frozen emerald seedless grapes is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of specialty frozen fruit products for institutional food service operations. Recent solicitations show the code embedded within larger grocery and food-service procurement spanning school nutrition programs, state hospital and residential facility food service, correctional facilities, Head Start programs, and county welfare nutrition assistance. The work typically involves supplying frozen produce as one line item within comprehensive food-commodity bids rather than as a standalone specialty procurement; bidders respond to broad food-service RFPs and IFBs that name this product alongside proteins, vegetables, dairy, bakery goods, and supplies, with quantities measured in cases.

The issuing-body mix reflects institutional food service across the state and local spectrum: state health and human services commissions (Texas HHSC for hospital and residential care facilities), county boards of education and independent school districts (Hancock County, Early County, Bulloch County, Savannah-Chatham, Henry County, Decatur, Fulton County, Rockwood R-VI in Missouri), municipal school systems (Bridgeport, Hillsborough County), Head Start agencies, and county correctional facilities (Santa Clara County Sheriff). Georgia and Texas dominate recent activity, with secondary presence in Connecticut, Missouri, Florida, and California. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017449 (El Paso State Supported Living Center food and consumable products, due July 13, 2026, historical spend $1.5 million annually) and the City of Bridgeport Board of Education's IFB for over 1,100 grocery line items including frozen products, due June 30, 2026, supporting the National School Lunch Program with Buy American and nutrition-standard compliance. School district produce and frozen-food solicitations frequently use IFB or RFP notice types with response deadlines in June through July for July 1 contract start dates aligned with academic-year food-service cycles. Pricing is consistently firm and fixed with transportation included, and awards are made on lowest-responsive-and-responsible or best-value bases with multi-vendor options common when districts allocate line items across suppliers.
