UNSPSC 50344640: Frozen piel de sapo melons

The variety of melons known as piel de sapo melons that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344640 Frozen piel de sapo melons, a Commodity code, sees sparse recent state and local procurement activity; the code's nominal scope—a specific melon variety—does not align with the recent opportunities tagged under it. The primary recent solicitation is the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for FY27 groceries to Big Spring State Hospital, posted July 13, 2026 with bids due July 27, 2026, which covers a broad range of proteins, prepared foods, dairy, pantry staples, beverages, and food service packaging across approximately 110 line items—none of which are frozen piel de sapo melons. The code appears to be a tagging artifact rather than a signal of genuine commodity procurement activity under this specific frozen-melon category.

State and local procurement of frozen produce and specialty food items does occur under broader produce and food categories at Texas Health and Human Services Commission facilities (Big Spring State Hospital and El Paso State Supported Living Center), school districts nationwide (Hancock County in Georgia, Bridgeport and Decatur in Georgia, Fulton County in Georgia, Douglas County in Georgia, Early County in Georgia, Bulloch County in Georgia, Henry County in Georgia, and Rockwood R-VI in Missouri), and specialized programs such as USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program efforts at Hillsborough County Public Schools in Tampa. However, no issuing body has posted a solicitation specifically for frozen piel de sapo melons in the recent-opportunities dataset. Vendors pursuing this commodity code should verify directly with state and local nutrition departments whether frozen specialty melon varieties are components of broader produce or frozen-food RFPs, as the code's narrow product definition does not track consistent or current procurement signals.
