UNSPSC 50344509: Frozen irwin mangoes

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

UNSPSC 50344509 Frozen irwin mangoes is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure frozen mangoes under this code as part of broader food service and nutrition program contracts, though the code sees limited standalone activity and instead appears as a line item within larger grocery, produce, or institutional food procurement RFPs. The work involves supply of individually quick-frozen or conventionally frozen mango products—typically packed in cases suitable for institutional kitchens, school cafeterias, correctional facilities, and state hospitals—where frozen mangoes serve as a staple fruit option in child nutrition, adult care, and institutional food service programs. Issuing bodies span state health and human services departments (particularly Texas HHSC), county school systems, city school districts, Head Start organizations, and correctional facilities, with school nutrition programs representing the dominant buyer class. State departments of corrections and state-supported living centers also procure frozen fruit products under similar commodity codes for inmate and resident food service.

Recent activity concentrates heavily in Texas, Georgia, and a broader multistate footprint including Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, California, Oregon, and New Jersey. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple food service RFPs (HHS0017660 for Big Spring State Hospital with response deadline July 27, 2026; HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center with response deadline July 11, 2026) that span fresh and frozen produce categories, though frozen mangoes are not individually itemized in available summaries. School district procurements—such as Hancock County Schools in Georgia (IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026), Douglas County Schools in Georgia (RFP SN 26-004 for fresh produce and eggs through GEC Buying Cooperative, due March 4, 2026), and Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools (Bid 26-34 for fresh produce, due April 23, 2026)—specify fresh or mixed produce line items with case quantities but do not isolate frozen mango procurement in posted summaries. The commodity code shows no recent standalone frozen-mango-specific solicitations in the dataset; activity appears concentrated within broader food service categories rather than as a disaggregated product line. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor grocery and produce contracts posted by school districts, state hospital systems, and correctional food service operations, where frozen fruit items are typically bundled with fresh produce, frozen vegetables, and other commodity staples.
