UNSPSC 50344943: Frozen ruby sweet nectarines

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

UNSPSC 50344943 Frozen ruby sweet nectarines is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code. The single posted opportunity—Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners' IWQ 140229 for shelf-stable food products including peanut butter, jelly, canned proteins, rice, pasta, sauces, soups, and canned vegetables—bears no relation to frozen ruby sweet nectarines. The remaining opportunities tagged under this code solicit broad food-service and grocery procurement spanning frozen vegetables (New Jersey Department of Human Services), fresh produce including multiple apple varieties and berries (Hancock County Board of Education), frozen prepared foods and proteins (Texas Health and Human Services Commission across multiple state-supported living centers and hospitals), grocery items for school districts and child care programs (Bridgeport Board of Education, Head Start of Greater Dallas), and general food and consumable products for institutional feeding. None of these solicitations name frozen nectarines as a line item or scope element.

The issuing bodies reflect the typical state and local institutional-food buyer base: state health and human services agencies (Texas HHSC, Oregon Department of Corrections, New Jersey Department of Human Services), county boards of education and school districts (Hancock County, Early County, Bridgeport), county government (Gwinnett County, Collier County), and nonprofit child care operators funded through federal Head Start appropriations. Recent activity concentrates in Texas (seven opportunities from HHSC and related entities), Georgia (three opportunities), and scattered procurement in New Jersey, Oregon, and Connecticut. The code shows little to no recent activity purchasing frozen ruby sweet nectarines specifically, making it unsuitable for pursuit under this commodity classification.
