UNSPSC 50344924: Frozen goldmine nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50344924 Frozen goldmine nectarines (Commodity) covers frozen stone fruit that state and local governments procure as part of comprehensive food service supply contracts, though recent activity shows minimal direct solicitation for this specific commodity in isolation. School districts, state institutional food services, and county nutrition programs account for the bulk of purchasing activity across frozen fruit categories, but solicitations rarely target frozen nectarines by name—instead bundling them within broader frozen-fruit, frozen-produce, or general grocery classifications. Recent state and local opportunities show food service procurement concentrated in Texas institutional feeding (Texas Health and Human Services Commission contracts for state hospitals and supported living centers), Georgia school nutrition programs (multiple school districts and county boards of education), Florida school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools), and specialized programs such as the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program. The Texas HHS contracts for Big Spring State Hospital (IFB HHS0017660, due July 27, 2026) and El Paso State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017449, due July 13, 2026) represent the largest institutional opportunities, with prior-year historical spend of $32,226 and $1.5 million respectively. School districts in Georgia—including Hancock County, Early County, Bulloch County, Henry County, Savannah-Chatham County, and Douglas County—have posted multiple RFPs and IFBs for fresh and frozen produce during spring 2026, typically with response dates between May and June 2026.

The issuing-body mix spans state health and human services departments (primarily Texas HHSC and Department of State Health Services), county school systems and boards of education (Georgia, Missouri, Florida, Connecticut), municipal school districts (Decatur, Bridgeport), specialized nutrition programs (Head Start of Greater Dallas), and county correctional facilities (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department of Correction). Geographic concentration is highest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida, Missouri, Connecticut, California, and Oregon. None of the recent opportunities explicitly solicited frozen nectarines by commodity code or specific product name; instead, frozen stone fruit appears as a line item within larger frozen-fruit or frozen-produce categories within omnibus grocery or food-supply RFPs and IFBs. The code shows limited standalone procurement velocity, suggesting vendors pursuing this commodity should track broader frozen-fruit and produce-supply contracts rather than expect dedicated solicitations targeting frozen nectarines alone.
