UNSPSC 50345509: Frozen principe ito persimmons

The variety of persimmons known as principe ito persimmons that have been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50345509 Frozen principe ito persimmons, a Commodity code, does not appear in recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally addresses a specific frozen fruit product, but the twenty opportunities posted between January and July 2026 that reference frozen fruit, produce, and food procurement span broad grocery, school nutrition, and institutional food-service categories that do not isolate this commodity. School districts, state agencies, county boards of education, and correctional facilities are sourcing frozen fruits—including berries, tropical blends, and specialty items—as line items within larger food-service contracts, but no solicitation explicitly targets frozen principe ito persimmons or names this product by variety.

The recent activity demonstrates that state and local food procurement occurs primarily through school nutrition programs (Hancock County Schools, Bulloch County Board of Education, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, City Schools of Decatur, Rockwood R-VI School District, Early County Schools, Henry County Schools, Fulton County Schools, and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida), state health and human services agencies (Texas Health and Human Services Commission for state hospitals and supported living centers), Head Start agencies, and correctional facilities (Oregon Department of Corrections, Santa Clara County Sheriff's Department). Frozen fruits appear as components of broader grocery or produce bids rather than as standalone commodity procurements, and when frozen specialty items are solicited—as in the Oregon Department of Corrections' April 2026 ITB for 40,000 pounds of frozen berries and the Santa Clara County ITB for dried fruits and nuts—they serve institutional cafeteria or canteen operations, not retail distribution. The code shows no recent standalone procurement activity and no clear market signal worth pursuing at the commodity level.
