UNSPSC 50344106: Frozen lisbon lemons

The variety of lemons known as lisbon lemons that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344106 Frozen lisbon lemons is a Commodity code, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities tagged under it reflect virtually no procurement of frozen Lisbon lemons specifically. Instead, issuing bodies—primarily school districts, state health and human services departments, county governments, and correctional facilities across the United States—are soliciting comprehensive food service contracts that span proteins, produce, dairy, pantry staples, beverages, and consumable supplies. The code's nominal scope does not align with the actual buying patterns in the posted opportunities. State and local procurement under tags associated with this code centers on institutional food service for child nutrition programs (National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, Child and Adult Care Food Program), state hospital and supported living center operations, correctional facilities, and Head Start programs. Issuing bodies span school districts (Fulton County Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Henry County Schools, Early County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Rockwood R-VI School District, City Schools of Decatur, Hancock County Board of Education, Hillsborough County Public Schools, Douglas County School System), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, New Jersey Department of Human Services), county governments (Santa Clara County, Hancock County), municipalities (City of Bridgeport), and federal-grant-funded nonprofits (Head Start of Greater Dallas). Several issuing bodies—particularly Texas HHSC and Georgia school districts—appear repeatedly across multiple recent solicitations, indicating sustained institutional demand.

Activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, California, Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, New Jersey, and Oregon. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for groceries and food service supplies at Big Spring State Hospital (due 27 July 2026, historical annual baseline $32,226.36 on approximately 110 line items), the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' IFB BID052266 for over 1,100 grocery line items serving the Bridgeport Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services (due 30 June 2026, Buy American requirement 51 percent domestic agricultural ingredients), Head Start of Greater Dallas' IFB 26-GP for frozen foods, produce, and meat products totaling approximately 32,409 cases with estimated procurement value $969,460.94 (sealed bids due 24 June 2026), and the Douglas County School System's RFP SN26-003 for food supply and distribution services across 32 schools with estimated annual expenditure of $9,000,000 (sealed proposals due 18 February 2026). These opportunities reflect institutional commodity food service rather than specialty citrus procurement, and firms evaluating activity under this code should note the significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and recent state and local buying activity.
