UNSPSC 50344503: Frozen criollo mangoes

The variety of mangoes known as criollo mangoes that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344503 Frozen criollo mangoes is a Commodity code with minimal recent activity directly under this narrow specification. The most recent state and local opportunities on file show no solicitations explicitly requesting frozen criollo mangoes. The code sits within a broader procurement environment dominated by comprehensive grocery, produce, and food-service spending across school districts, state institutions, and county governments, but the frozen-criollo-mango specification does not appear in current bid records. State and local buyers procuring under related codes are actively seeking fresh and frozen produce, frozen fruits, and specialty items through school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, health and human services institutions, and child care programs, but these solicitations typically request broader produce categories (mixed frozen vegetables, frozen berries, fresh fruit assortments, specialty produce) rather than the single-item frozen-criollo-mango commodity.

The sourcing environment for state and local produce procurement spans multiple issuing-body types: school districts in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Connecticut, and Florida dominate recent activity; the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and state-supported living centers procure institutional food service at scale; county boards of education and city school systems issue regular produce RFPs and IFBs; and specialty programs such as the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program create standalone demand. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia (Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County Schools, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Fulton County Schools, Douglas County Schools, City Schools of Decatur), Texas (HHSC Big Spring State Hospital, HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center, Head Start of Greater Dallas), and secondary activity in Missouri, Connecticut, Florida, California, New Jersey, and Oregon. Recent representative opportunities include the Hancock County Board of Education's IFB for fresh produce (June 26, 2026 deadline, over 200 line items including mangos and papayas), the Douglas County School System's RFP for fresh produce and eggs through the GEC Buying Cooperative (March 4, 2026 deadline, $4.4 million estimated spend for Area One), and the Hillsborough County Public Schools Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program RFP (March 11, 2026 deadline, $600,000 annual USDA-funded budget for specialty fruits and vegetables). Because frozen criollo mangoes do not surface in recent state and local solicitation records, pursuing this code requires outreach to institutional food service buyers with specialty-produce programs or direct relationship development with school districts expanding their fresh and frozen fruit offerings.
