UNSPSC 50344523: Frozen smith mangoes

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

UNSPSC 50344523 Frozen smith mangoes is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual work state and local governments are buying under recent solicitations tagged with it. The code's nominal scope—a single frozen fruit variety—bears no relationship to the comprehensive food service and nutrition procurement activity appearing in the recent opportunities block. State and local procurement offices are not soliciting frozen smith mangoes as a line item; rather, they are issuing broad grocery and food supply contracts spanning hundreds of product lines across proteins, dairy, produce, prepared foods, and consumable supplies. The recent solicitations include grocery bids from Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state hospital food service, Bridgeport Board of Education for a school lunch program spanning over 1,100 line items, Head Start of Greater Dallas for approximately 32,409 cases of frozen foods and produce, and multiple school districts across Georgia, Missouri, and Florida for comprehensive food and nutrition programs. The issuing bodies are predominantly state health agencies, school districts, and local boards of education; the code's appearance in these records reflects a tagging mismatch rather than genuine commodity demand.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Texas, Georgia, and Florida, with additional school district procurements in Missouri, California, and Oregon. Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple solicitations (IFB HHS0017660 for Big Spring State Hospital with bids due July 27, 2026, and IFB HHS0017449 for El Paso State Supported Living Center with bids due July 11, 2026) covering statewide food service operations, while Georgia school systems—including Hancock County Board of Education, Bulloch County Schools, and Savannah-Chatham County Public School System—have issued fresh produce and grocery solicitations with response dates ranging from late April through early June 2026. The Bridgeport Board of Education (Connecticut) posted grocery bids due June 30, 2026, under Buy American requirements, and Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa, Florida) solicited fresh produce for a USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program with an estimated budget of $600,000. The code shows no recent activity genuinely aligned with frozen smith mangoes as a standalone product line; analysts should verify whether this code assignment represents a cataloging error or a secondary component within larger food service procurement frameworks.
