UNSPSC 50344313: Frozen wolfe loquats

The variety of loquats known as wolfe loquats that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344313 Frozen wolfe loquats is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities posted under this code do not reflect actual purchases of frozen wolfe loquats or specialty frozen fruit products; instead, they document broad food service and grocery procurement across state agencies, school districts, and county governments. These solicitations span shelf-stable pantry items, proteins, dairy, fresh and frozen vegetables, prepared entrees, and general institutional grocery supplies—none of which closely align with the specialized nature of frozen wolfe loquats, a niche or regionally specific product. The issuing bodies include state health and human services commissions in Texas, state departments of corrections, county boards of education in Georgia and Florida, a city school district in Connecticut, Head Start organizations, and county social services agencies. The sourcing patterns suggest the code may have been misapplied to these opportunities, or the product category encompasses a broader frozen-fruit commodity set than the code name suggests.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Florida, Oregon, Connecticut, and New Jersey. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued multiple IFBs for institutional food supplies in summer and fall 2026, including HHS0017338 for frozen food products (estimated $9 million annually, with up to 18 qualified ordering entities statewide), HHS0017660V2 for Big Spring State Hospital groceries ($32,226.36 historical value), and HHS0017799 and HHS0017798 for Mexia State Supported Living Center supplies. The Oregon Department of Corrections solicited 40,000 pounds of frozen sliced or diced apples in August 2026 (IFB S2910000017684, response due August 19, 2026), offering Oregon-goods and resident-bidder preferences totaling 10 percent. Hancock County Board of Education in Georgia sought fresh produce including multiple apple varieties for the 2026–27 school year (IFB SN002-2027, bids due June 26, 2026), and Gwinnett County sought shelf-stable food items in October 2026 (IWQ 140229, due October 19, 2026). The code shows no standout repeat buyers or specialized frozen-loquat procurement; the recent opportunities reflect generic food-service and grocery purchasing rather than niche frozen-fruit sourcing.
