UNSPSC 50345320: Frozen empress peaches

The variety of peaches known as empress peaches that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345320 Frozen empress peaches is a Commodity code that covers specialty frozen fruit procurement for institutional food service, though recent state and local solicitations show the code capturing a much broader range of frozen and fresh produce, prepared foods, and comprehensive grocery provisioning for schools, correctional facilities, and human services agencies rather than peaches specifically. State and local governments are actually buying full-line food service supplies—proteins, dairy, pantry staples, beverages, produce, and consumables—through bids tagged under this and related commodity codes. The issuing bodies span school districts (elementary through high school), state health and human services departments, county boards of education, Head Start programs, and correctional facilities. Texas Health and Human Services Commission appears twice in recent postings (Big Spring State Hospital and El Paso State Supported Living Center), and Georgia school districts dominate the recent activity, with multiple postings from Hancock County, Bulloch County, Early County, Decatur, Henry County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County boards of education, indicating sustained procurement focus in that state.

Geographic concentration is heaviest in Georgia and Texas, with secondary activity in Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), Connecticut (City of Bridgeport), Oregon (Department of Corrections), Missouri (Rockwood School District), and California (Santa Clara County). Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for FY27 groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (due July 27, 2026, spanning 110+ line items at approximately $32,226 in prior-year spend), the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases' IFB BNB052266 for grocery items supporting the Board of Education's Food & Nutrition Services (due June 30, 2026, covering 1,100+ line items under Buy American requirements), Head Start of Greater Dallas' IFB 26-GP for frozen foods, produce, and meat totaling $969,460.94 in estimated procurement value (sealed bids due June 24, 2026), and Hancock County Board of Education's IFB SN002-2027 for fresh produce spanning 200+ line items (sealed bids due June 26, 2026). Most solicitations require firm fixed pricing for the initial contract period, compliance with Buy American and HACCP standards, delivery to multiple school or facility locations on specified schedules, and liability insurance minimums ranging from $500,000 to $2,000,000. Set-asides and preferences are not explicit in the posted materials, though some solicitations note encouragement of small and minority-owned business participation consistent with federal requirements.
