UNSPSC 50345353: Frozen sierra gem peaches

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

UNSPSC 50345353 Frozen sierra gem peaches is a Commodity code covering individual frozen fruit products supplied to state and local institutions. State and local governments procure this commodity primarily through school districts, state health and human services agencies, and corrections departments to support child nutrition programs, institutional food service, and nutrition assistance initiatives. The recent opportunities show that frozen fruit procurement occurs as part of much larger grocery and produce bids spanning hundreds of line items, with frozen peaches appearing as one among many frozen fruit options (berries, mixed vegetables, tropical blends) rather than as standalone solicitations. Issuing bodies span state departments (Texas Health and Human Services Commission, New Jersey Department of Human Services), county school districts (Hancock County, Fulton County, Savannah-Chatham, Henry County, Bulloch County, Early County, Rockwood R-VI, Douglas County, Decatur City Schools), city school systems (Bridgeport Board of Education, Hillsborough County), a county corrections facility (Santa Clara County Sheriff's Office), a state corrections department (Oregon Department of Corrections), and child care and Head Start agencies (Head Start of Greater Dallas). Texas HHSC and school districts in Georgia appear as repeat buyers across multiple recent solicitations.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Georgia, with school district solicitations posted from Hancock County, Savannah-Chatham, Bulloch County, Early County, Decatur, Fulton County, Douglas County, and Henry County between February and June 2026. Texas appears as a secondary hub through HHSC facilities in multiple regions (El Paso, Big Spring) and Head Start procurement. Smaller activity extends to Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Connecticut (Bridgeport), California (Santa Clara County), New Jersey, and Oregon. Representative recent solicitations include the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB HHS0017660 for FY27 groceries at Big Spring State Hospital (approximately 110 line items spanning proteins, prepared foods, dairy, pantry staples, and beverages, due July 27, 2026 at 10:30 a.m. Central Time with historical spend of $32,226.36); the Hancock County Board of Education IFB for fresh produce for SY27 (over 200 line items including apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, and citrus, due June 26, 2026); and the Douglas County School System RFP SN 26-004 through the GEC Buying Cooperative for fresh produce and eggs serving 30 school districts across two Georgia areas with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (due March 4, 2026). Frozen fruit products within these solicitations typically must meet USDA/FDA standards, HACCP requirements, nutrition labeling standards, Buy American provisions where federally funded, and delivery within specified timeframes and temperature ranges.
