UNSPSC 50344922: Frozen flat type nectarines

The variety of nectarines known as flat type nectarines that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50344922 Frozen flat type nectarines is a Commodity code that appears rarely in state and local procurement activity; the recent opportunities block shows no solicitations matching this specific product line. Searches across Texas health and human services facilities, Georgia and Connecticut school districts, Head Start programs, and county correctional systems over the past six months surface grocery and food-service procurements covering broad frozen fruit categories—including berries, mixed vegetables, and general frozen foods for institutional feeding—but no discrete demand for frozen flat nectarines. The code's narrow product specificity (a single fruit variety in a single form) sits at odds with the aggregated, category-based procurement patterns that dominate state and local food service contracting, where frozen fruits are typically bundled into larger frozen-product line items or produce categories alongside other fruits and vegetables.

State and local purchasing offices consolidate frozen fruit demand into broader commodity classes spanning multiple fruit types, processed foods, or produce categories rather than sourcing individual frozen-fruit items by variety. The recent activity under related codes—including frozen foods, fresh produce, groceries, and food supplies for school nutrition programs, institutional facilities, and social-service agencies—shows that issuing bodies (school districts in Georgia, Connecticut, Texas, Missouri, and California; state health and human services commissions; county social-service and correction departments) award contracts via IFB and RFP with response windows of 30 to 60 days, emphasizing USDA compliance, HACCP certification, Buy American provisions, and firm fixed pricing. The absence of posted opportunities for frozen flat nectarines specifically suggests either minimal institutional demand for this product form, bundling of such items into broader frozen-fruit or produce line items at contract award, or sourcing through standing state or regional cooperative purchasing agreements outside the visible RFP/IFB market. Vendors pursuing this code should monitor school district and institutional food-service RFPs broadly for frozen-fruit categories and clarify during the Q&A phase whether frozen flat nectarines are included or can be proposed as alternates to other frozen fruit specifications.
